“I will give you some insights. So, we wrapped in June. It’s in the can. It is percolating. I'm very, very excited for fans and new fans to see the sequel. I'm really proud of it. I'm really excited about it.”

Discussing The Accountant 2 with Cinemablend, Addai-Robinson revealed that the movie has now wrapped and that her character will have a much bigger role this time around. Alongside Addai-Robinson, The Accountant 2 will bring back the likes of writer Bill Dubuque, director Gavin O'Connor, and stars Ben Affleck, Jon Bernthal, and J. K. Simmons.

“And you are correct, I did not get to work with Ben in the first one. I just got to examine photos of him and even in terms of meeting him, I would've met him at the table read in the first film and passed him here and there. But yeah, I had hoped when they announced the sequel, I’d get to work with him and get some scenes with him, and I do.

We have so many people returning that were involved in the first film, including our writer, Bill Dubuque, our director, Gavin O'Connor. Obviously, our cast. And, I love the dynamic that they have set up for my character, Marybeth and all of the other characters that are floating around so, I don't wanna give too much away.”

Released back in 2016, the first The Accountant outing follows Ben Affleck as Christian Wolff, a certified public accountant with autism who has an affinity for numbers and makes his living manipulating the books of criminal and terrorist organizations around the world that are experiencing internal embezzlement. As Wolff gets closer to the truth about a discrepancy that involves millions of dollars, the body count starts to rise as Christian reveals himself to be just as good at killing as he is at accountancy.

“When her former boss is killed by unknown assassins, Treasury Agent Marybeth Medina (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) is forced to contact Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) to solve the murder. With the help of his estranged but highly lethal brother Brax (Jon 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.“

The Accountant 2 is now scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States by Amazon MGM Studios on April 25, 2025.
