The Accountant 2, the sequel to Ben Affleck's 2016 original, is finally coming to streaming platforms. The film was first released in movie theaters worldwide on April 25, 2025, reuniting Affleck's Christian Wolff with his equally menacing and lethal brother, Brax, played by Jon Bernthal.

Moreover, it's currently certified "Fresh" and verified "Hot" on Rotten Tomatoes, with a 76% rating from critics and a 92% score from audiences. It received a much better reception than the original, which only has a 53% score from critics and 77% from viewers.

Stream The Accountant 2 on Prime Video

The Accountant 2 made its premiere at South by Southwest early in March 2025, followed by a theatrical release on April 25. Just slightly over a month later, the movie will make its streaming debut. It will be exclusively available on Prime Video starting on Thursday, June 5, 2025.

Streaming typically offers a second life to movies that weren't so successful at the box office. However, in The Accountant 2's case, with the positive audience reception and its star power, it's poised to further thrive on streaming. Produced by Amazon MGM Films, the movie won't be available on any other streaming platform currently, apart from Prime Video.

What is The Accountant 2 all about?

Picking up from where 2016's The Accountant left off, Ben Affleck returns as the highly skilled CPA with autism, Christian Wolff. While the first movie focuses on him as the main protagonist, this time, he will be joined by his estranged hitman younger brother, Braxton.

Christian and Braxton will work together to solve the mystery surrounding the death of the former's old associate and the cryptic message he left. Here's what the sequel's synopsis teases:

"Christian Wolff has a talent for solving complex problems. When an old acquaintance is murdered, leaving behind a cryptic message to "find the accountant," Wolff must recruit his estranged and highly lethal brother, Brax, to help solve the case."

The brother duo is in for danger and violence throughout the quest, as further teased in the synopsis:

"In partnership with US Treasury Deputy Director Medina, they uncover a deadly conspiracy and become targets of a ruthless network of killers."

Besides Affleck and Bernthal, the sequel will also feature several returning cast members from the original film, including J.K. Simmons as Raymond King and Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Marybeth Medina. Gavin O'Connor also returned to direct the sequel.
