Doug Liman's "The Instigators" reunites Matt Damon and Casey Affleck. A desperate father is trying to reconnect with his son, who teams up with his former cellmate Cobby to steal illegally gained profits from a corrupt politician in Boston.
The heist thriller will have a limited theatrical release in the US on August 2, 2024, before streaming on Apple TV+ on August 9, 2024.
Matt Damon stars as Rory, the father. Affleck is Cobby. Their planned heist goes awry, leading to chaos as they are pursued by the police, armed bureaucrats, and vengeful crime bosses. Unable to decide their next move, they recruit Rory's therapist, played by Hong Chau, to join their turbulent escape through the city.
The cast also includes Michael Stuhlbarg, Paul Walter Hauser, Jack Harlow (as a thief partnering with Damon's character), Alfred Molina, Toby Jones, Ron Perlman, and Ving Rhames.
The film balances Liman's signature humor, high-speed car chases, gunfights, action, and tender character moments, promising an intense and hilarious cinematic experience.
The script is written by Casey Affleck and Chuck Maclean, and the producers include Ben Affleck, Damon, Jeff Robinov, John Graham, and Kevin J. Walsh.
