Atlas Shrugged: Part II (or Atlas Shrugged II: The Strike[3]) is a 2012 American drama film based on the 1957 novel Atlas Shrugged by the philosopher Ayn Rand. It is the second installment in the Atlas Shrugged film series and the first sequel to the 2011 film Atlas Shrugged: Part I, continuing the story where its predecessor left off.[4] Directed by John Putch, the film stars Samantha Mathis, Jason Beghe, Esai Morales, Patrick Fabian, Kim Rhodes, Richard T. Jones, and D. B. Sweeney. The film was released on October 12, 2012.[5]

The film was largely panned by critics and was a box office bomb, grossing only $3.3 million worldwide against a $10 million budget.[6] Despite Part II being a critical and financial failure, a sequel to the film, titled Atlas Shrugged Part III: Who Is John Galt?, was released in 2014.
