This deleted scene from The Raid 2 will blow you away

THE RAID 2 is about to hit theaters in North America and if you weren’t pumped up already about the sequel, this should do the trick. This is a deleted scene recently shared by director Gareth Evans, and the level of intense anarchy on display should give you a good idea what’s in store with this blood-soaked opus.

Here is Evans explaining why the scene had to be excised:

This is one of a few deleted scenes taken from the film. Reasons to cut were entirely down to pacing issues. This was probably the hardest for me to cut due to the fact that the production on this scene lasted around 6 days of shooting, it cost us a f*ck load to make and it served to escalate the gang war out onto the streets involving people outside of the closed off inter-gang politics.

At the end of the day though, after discussing its worth it took us away from the central theme for a little too long with characters that would only exist in this scene alone.

Prepare yourself – it’s about to get messy. (You might even consider it NSFW.) THE RAID 2 opens on March 28th.
