A sequel to Ben Affleck’s 2016 starrer The Accountant has moved from Warners to Amazon MGM and is finally about to start production later this month. The film has been in development since 2017.
Affleck will return along with J.K. Simmons, Jon Bernthal and Cynthia Addai-Robinson who all featured in the original.
When her former boss is killed by unknown assassins, Treasury Agent Marybeth Medina (Addai-Robinson) is forced to contact Christian Wolff (Affleck) to solve the murder. With the help of his estranged but highly lethal brother Brax (Bernthal), Chris applies his brilliant mind and less-than-legal methods to piece together the unsolved puzzle. As they get closer to the truth, the trio draw the attention of some of the most ruthless killers alive — all intent on putting a stop to their search.
