Troll 2 on Netflix: Release Date, Plot, Cast & What to Expect

After the immense success of Troll in 2022, Netflix is set to release Troll 2 this 2025! The Troll team has already declared it to be, “…an even better, bigger, funnier, and more adventurous film – if that’s even possible!” Troll 2 is based on the Norwegian folklore of giants who are believed to live and hibernate in the Douvre Mountains. But, all hell breaks loose when it decides to wake up and wreak havoc in the nearby cities. The government calls in paleontology professor Nora Tidemann (Ine Marie Wilmann). She and her father (played by Gard B. Eidsvold) attempt to stall the Troll before it reaches Oslo, the capital.

After Troll was a great hit with the audience globally, Troll 2’s release is now grabbing eyeballs. After its release, Troll became the most-watched Netflix Original international film within the first 91 days. Troll holds the record for 103 million views in the first 91 days of its launch.
