Netflix viewers have been left baffled by the omission of The Old Guard 2, starring Charlize Theron, from the streamer’s list of 2024 releases.
At the beginning of every month, the streaming service usually drops the titles of all the films and TV series being released or axed from its platform.
The Old Guard 2 didn’t seem to make the cut despite previously being announced for release in 2024.
And fans are not impressed as they’ve had to wait for four years to finally get a part two.
Following the schedule’s new release, many Netflix users took to X(Twitter) and expressed concern.
One user penned: “WHAT ABOUT THE OLD GUARD 2???”
Another exclaimed: “What the hell?”
A third added: “Once again, where the f*** is Old Guard 2?
The Old Guard, directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, follows Charlize’s character, Andy, an immortal warrior who, along with three other mercenaries, has spent centuries protecting her freedom.

Recently, despite filming finishing three years ago, Netflix has decided to axe a huge Hollywood blockbuster.
The Mothership, a sci-fi movie led by Halle Berry and completed in 2021, has been officially canceled.
The film allegedly had its release “pulled indefinitely” following several delays that pushed the project back by years.
The InSneider newsletter first reported the film’s cancellation, claiming the decision stemmed from the child actors’ having grown up too much for some “significant” reshoots to work.
Now, it has been confirmed that the movie has been canned for good and will not see the light of day.
