The Accountant, released in 2016, was an action-thriller that came out of nowhere and surprised a lot of people. The film had come out a two years since the release of John Wick and it would help usher in what I consider a new age of Western action films.
There was instant talk of a sequel after the success of the first film, but with Ben Affleck busy doing his Batman and Justice League bit over at DC Films the sequel had been put on the back-burner. Well, with the crash and burn of the DCEU it looked like Affleck had some time on his hands now and this meant the sequel to The Accountant was back to cooking.
On April 25, 2025, we will see just what Gavin O’Connor, Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal have cooked up as a follow-up to the first film with The Accountant 2.
Sounds interesting, but since I’ve never seen the original I probably should start there…

My life as a certified public accountant is not quite as action packed as this. 🙂

Guessing you locked in on his “alternative means of stored value.”:-) That Action Comics #1, just sitting in a drawer and not bagged-and-boarded, was killing me! In 1981 a copy sold for $25,000. Last year, a copy sold for $3.25 million. Quite a Capital Gain!:-)
You are soft-selling things, but when you go to audit I’ll bet you bust out an Overdose of Masculinity.
