This time, it’s Casey Affleck (Cobby) who teams up with Matt Damon (Rory) to pull off a robbery of a corrupt politician’s dirty money.
But when the heist goes very wrong, the the ex-con and desperate father are whisked into a whirlwind of chaos, pursued not only by police but also backwards bureaucrats and vengeful crime bosses.

Directed by Doug Liman, The Instigators also stars Ving Rhames, Michael Stuhlbarg, Paul Walter Hauser, Alfred Molina, and Toby Jones with Jack Harlow and Ron Perlman.
“I was suddenly being parachuted into someone else’s family,” said Liman about working with Damon, Affleck, and the talented cast on the film. “Every family’s crazy. And I loved it. I loved everything about it. In a way, I was back to the days of making independent movies where we couldn’t get the attention of anybody in the industry so you’re just doing it on your own with your friends. It’s my favorite kind of filmmaking.”
The Instigators is now streaming on Apple TV+.
