The Four Horsemen [Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Lizzy Caplan] return
for a second mind-bending adventure, elevating the limits of stage illusion to new heights
and taking them around the globe. One year after outwitting the FBI and winning the public’s
adulation with their Robin Hood-style magic spectacles, the illusionists resurface for a comeback performance in hopes of exposing the unethical practices of a tech magnate. The man
behind their vanishing act is none other than Walter Mabry [Daniel Radcliffe], a tech prodigy
who threatens the Horsemen into pulling off their most impossible heist yet. Their only hope
is to perform one last unprecedented stunt to clear their names and reveal the mastermind
behind it all.

original this film combines an intriguing heist mystery with the fun of great magic. Seek to
