The Accountant 2 debuted in theaters across the United States in April 2025, distributed by Amazon MGM Studios.

Directed by Gavin O’Connor, this film continues from 2016’s The Accountant, with Affleck reprising his role as Christian Wolff, who excels at solving complicated problems. When he learns of the murder of an old acquaintance, who leaves behind a puzzling clue to “find the accountant,” Wolff feels compelled to investigate. Realizing that he needs to take more drastic actions, Wolff enlists the help of his estranged and deadly brother, Brax (Bernthal). Alongside U.S. Treasury Deputy Director Marybeth Medina (Cynthia Addai-Robinson), they delve into a perilous conspiracy, becoming targets of a merciless group of assassins determined to keep their secrets hidden.

The Accountant 2 star cast

The cast also includes Daniella Pineda, Allison Robertson, and J.K. Simmons, with the screenplay written by Bill Dubuque and produced by Affleck, Lynette Howell Taylor, and Mark Williams.

The first Accountant film, which earned $155 million worldwide during its 2016 release, later became the most-rented digital film of the following year. It introduced Affleck as a highly proficient CPA with autism who leads a dual life as a forensic accountant for criminal enterprises. Affleck and Matt Damon’s Artists Equity produced the sequel and partnered with Amazon MGM after obtaining the rights to the sequel from Warner Bros.
