Havoc does not have a post-credit scene
As mentioned above, the film has no post-credit scene, unlike most of the big-budget action films of recent times that put a scene at the end of the film to tease a sequel or spin-off.
In Gareth Evans' dark and gritty thriller, the camera stays on Tom Hardy's Walker's face watches all the cop cars coming towards his cabin. Then the screen fades to black after the credits roll.
Evans told Entertainment Weekly in a piece published on April 25, 2025, that he never intended the film to have a sequel. However, the end scene has created a lot of intrigue about Walker's journey. He said,
"It was always intended as a one-and-done, but there's definitely a hell of a lot of intrigue about what happens next with Walker's journey. It's like, well, what happens once the credits roll? Does he end up in the back of a cop car, or does he ride shotgun? Probably not."
It continues,
"But yeah, there are a lot of unanswered questions about what the future holds for that character, and so it would be interesting to see where that goes."
What is Havoc about?
Havoc is an intense action film from Gareth Evans, known for the The Raid film franchise that inspired many of the action films that came after it. The film carries a dark and gritty tone throughout, and most of the action takes place during the night.
The story follows detective Walker, trying to get an influential businessman off his back by saving his son Charlie, suspected of killing the son of the Triad boss, Tsui. As Walker tries to save Charlie and his girlfriend Mia, he finds out that Tsui and his people were killed by cops, with whom he had been involved in the murder of an undercover cop.
Walker, with the help of his associate Ellie, fights all the bad guys in his way to keep his word and save Charlie. However, the job would be harder and more dangerous than anything he had ever done, as there are very few good guys in this world, and the bad guys don't blink before firing their weapons.
Here's the official synopsis by Netflix:
"When a drug heist swerves lethally out of control, a jaded cop fights his way through a corrupt city's criminal underworld to save a politician's son."
