However, Bryce is literally pulled back into action by Sonia Kincaid (Hayek), the infamous international con artist and volatile wife of old friend/foe Darius’ (Jackson), who needs his help saving her husband. They get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stand between Europe and vengeful madman, Aristotle Papadopolous (Antonio Banderas).
