Chu is a sequel to “Know You See Me.” It tells the story of a group of hoodlums starring Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Jesse Eisenberg, Michael Caine, and Mark Ruffalo. In the first film, we saw how they stole from Arthur Tressler, and now, Now You See Me 2 will find this group waiting for a new mission from Dylan Rhodes.
After they find a new mission and want to uncover a company’s shenanigans, but they are kidnapped and forced to steal computer chips. However, the Four Horsemen have an ace under their sleeve and will expose that CEO and his company. So let’s take a look at the plot and see how it goes!
Now You See Me 2 Plot
The fugitive Four Horsemen—J. Daniel Atlas, Merritt McKinney, Jack Wilder, and newcomer Lula May—await orders from the Eye, the mysterious organization of magicians, 18 months after evading the FBI. Their handler, FBI Special Agent Dylan Rhodes, gives them orders: expose unscrupulous tech CEO Owen Case, whose most recent cell phone will covertly gather customers’ personal information to resell on the black market.
The Horsemen in New York City hijack the launch of the phone, but they are stopped by an unknown person who informs the world that Jack faked his death and that Dylan is a member of the Horsemen. As the Horsemen flee down a construction chute and end up in Macau, Dylan eludes the FBI.
Merritt McKinney
Merritt’s identical brother Chase finds them and brings them to Walter Mabry, Owen’s former business partner. Walter describes how the Horsemen were rendered comatose and transported to Macau after exposure in New York. Walter lost his business to Owen, along with a chip Walter created that could access any computer system around the globe. Daniel agrees to steal the chip for Walter before Owen can sell it despite the objections of the other Horsemen.
Knowing they can’t trust Walter, they gather goods from a magic shop run by Li and Bu Bu and plan to get the chip to the Eye. They enter the Macau Science Center as prospective customers and use cunning and deception to get the chip past Allen Scott-Frank, the center’s manager. Thaddeus Bradley, the magic debunker he blamed for the Horsemen’s crimes, contacts Dylan. He extradites him from jail since he pledges to assist in the hunt for the Horsemen.
Dylan
Dylan discovers Daniel preparing to transfer the chip to the Eye when they arrive in Macau. After tricking Daniel into thinking he was in communication with the Eye, Walter shows up. Dylan engages Walter’s soldiers in battle as Daniel flees with the chip. Walter is the son of Arthur Tressler, whose riches Dylan and the Horsemen stole, Dylan learns after being captured. Dylan’s imprisonment and submersion in a safe by Walter and Arthur is meant to resemble Dylan’s father’s passing.
Thaddeus also agrees to deliver the Horsemen in exchange for payment from Arthur for bringing him Dylan. Dylan gets out of the safe, and the Horsemen come to his aid. They decide to prevent Walter from obtaining the genuine chip after realizing the chip they have is a fake and are joined by Li and Bu Bu.

What Happened At The End Of Now You See Me 2?
The Horsemen advertise a new performance in London while obliquely threatening to out Walter, who takes a private plane to London with Arthur and Chase. The Horsemen perform throughout the city on New Year’s Eve, but Walter’s men arrest them and bring Dylan to the jet. After forcing them to turn over the false chip, which Walter later proves to be real, his goons hurl Dylan and the Horsemen out of the aircraft, ostensibly to their deaths. Walter, Arthur, and Chase quickly realize that their plane is on a set floating on the Thames and that they have never taken off.
The Horseman and Dylan reveal Jack had charmed Chase into tossing the three out of the plane as intended and explain how they had deceived the three into believing they had won. As Dylan and the Horsemen flee before the FBI can capture them, Walter, Arthur, and Chase are arrested after their crimes are made public in front of the crowd and over the globe. When they go to the Greenwich Observatory, they run across Li, Bu Bu, and Allen as well as other Eye members. Thaddeus, who reveals to Dylan that he was his father’s magic partner while feigning to be his adversary the entire time, is their leader. The Horsemen are shown a hidden entrance to see more of the Eye, and he names Dylan the new commander.
