SIGN UP for The Daily OutKick. New Look, Same Attitude.

"The Accountant 2" releases new trailer.

The original film in the "Accountant" saga came out all the way back in 2016, and it was a pretty solid movie. It's hard to believe it's already been that long.

It seemed ripe for a sequel, and fans are now getting one later in April. Not only are viewers getting a sequel, but Jon Bernthal is joining the cast. That's a hell of an addition.

Check out the latest preview below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

Seriously, don't tease me with a good time. The ending of the preview with Affleck and Bernthal's characters rocking it with rifles is exactly what action fans want to see.

Is there anything cooler than shootouts with suppressed rifles? The answer is almost certainly no.

As long as "The Accountant 2" keeps the same vibe and energy as the first one, then fans should definitely be in for a fun time. We'll find out in a few weeks on April 25th. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
