Murder-Mystery 2 plot: What’s it about?
This is the newest synopsis for the action-comedy…
Four years after solving their first murder mystery, Nick and Audrey Spitz are now full-time detectives struggling to get their private eye agency off the ground when they’re invited to celebrate the wedding of their friend the Maharaja on his private island. But trouble follows the Spitzes again when the groom is kidnapped for ransom soon after the festivities begin – making each glamorous guest, family member, and the bride herself a suspect. Murder Mystery 2 sends Nick and Audrey Spitz on a high-stakes case that finally gives them everything they’ve ever dreamed of: a shot at their detective agency finally becoming successful… and their long-awaited trip to Paris.
Speaking of the streamer’s reasons for continuing this story, Netflix executive Kira Goldberg told Variety: “We have two sequels this year coming in two different genres – Murder Mystery 2 and Extraction 2. Both are delivering on characters that the audience loved and expanding those storylines. Murder Mystery takes you to places that you haven’t been before in the last installment.”
