The Accountant 2 OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Ben Affleck & Jon Bernthal¡¯s action thriller online

The Accountant 2 OTT Release Date: After carving out a solid reputation as one of the more quietly clever action thrillers of the last decade, The Accountant is officially back, and this time, the stakes are higher, the punches are harder, and the numbers? Well, they¡¯re even deadlier. The Accountant 2 is heading to your screens this summer, with a global streaming premiere on Prime Video starting June 5, 2025.

It arrives hot off a successful theatrical run, where it bagged the SXSW Audience Award and earned that rare ¡°Certified Fresh¡± badge. So if you missed catching Ben Affleck¡¯s number-crunching, gun-toting vigilante in theatres, now¡¯s your chance to dive headfirst into the chaos.

So, where did we leave Christian Wolff?

If you remember the first film, you¡¯ll recall that Christian Wolff wasn¡¯t your typical accountant. A math savant with autism, Christian lives a double life: forensic accountant by day, and freelance enforcer for criminal organisations by night. The man¡¯s as comfortable with spreadsheets as he is with semi-automatic weapons.

By the end of The Accountant (2016), Wolff had narrowly escaped the law, reconciled with a sliver of humanity through his friendship with Dana (Anna Kendrick), and vanished into the shadows. But unfinished business and a family secret in the form of his brother Brax (Jon Bernthal) was left hanging in the air.

What¡¯s the plot this time around?

The Accountant 2 doesn¡¯t waste time reintroducing us to Wolff¡¯s strange but fascinating world. It picks up with Christian trying to keep a low profile. But when an old contact is murdered, and the only clue left behind is a cryptic message: ¡°Find the accountant,¡± Christian is pulled right back into the danger zone.

This is part of something bigger. Much bigger. To crack the case, Christian must turn to his estranged, highly trained brother Brax. Their dynamic is electric: think bulletproof family baggage with fists flying. Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal bounce off each other like cold steel - gritty, intense, and surprisingly emotional.

Cynthia Addai-Robinson reprises her role as Marybeth Medina, now a high-ranking Treasury official who once hunted Christian, but now ends up as a reluctant partner. Together, they unravel a twisted conspiracy, one that involves corporate greed, shadowy syndicates, and a trail of bodies.

Who¡¯s behind the scenes?

This sequel brings back the winning team. Gavin O¡¯Connor, who directed the original, returns to the director¡¯s chair. The script is penned by Bill Dubuque, whose knack for morally complex characters shines once again. Ben Affleck, aside from starring, also wears the producer¡¯s hat alongside Lynette Howell Taylor and Mark Williams.

The cast is solid and stacked. Alongside Affleck and Bernthal, you¡¯ve got Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Marybeth Medina, Daniella Pineda in a new, undisclosed but reportedly high-stakes role, Allison Robertson, and J.K. Simmons, possibly reprising his character from the original. And if you haven¡¯t seen the first one (or want a quick rewatch), The Accountant (2016) is also streaming on Prime Video.
