The Accountant Movies: Release Order
The Accountant series stars Ben Affleck as Christian Wolff, a brilliant but socially challenged accountant with autism who maintains a small-town CPA practice while secretly working as a forensic accountant for some of the world's most dangerous criminal organizations. The films balance character-driven storytelling with intense action sequences featuring the Indonesian martial art Pencak Silat.
The first film establishes Christian's complex backstory and unique skill set, while the sequel shifts focus to his relationship with his brother Braxton (Jon Bernthal), transforming the series into more of a buddy action thriller. A third installment is in development, promising a road-trip format with a lighter tone and deeper emotional exploration of the brothers' relationship.
