After the surprise success of the first film, The Family Plan 2 returns with even more action, laughs, and chaos. Directed by Simon Cellan Jones, the Apple TV+ original continues the story of Dan Morgan, a retired assassin who just wants a normal life with his family.
This time, that peace doesn’t last long. The movie premieres November 21, 2025, exclusively on Apple TV+, and promises bigger stunts, exotic locations, and plenty of family moments gone wrong.
Star-Studded Cast and New Faces
Mark Wahlberg reprises his role as Dan Morgan, balancing family life with his secret past. Michelle Monaghan returns as Jessica Morgan, his quick-thinking wife who’s done with surprises. Their kids, played by Zoe Colletti and Van Crosby, also return.
The sequel welcomes a major new addition, Kit Harington. The Game of Thrones star plays a mysterious figure from Dan’s old life who threatens to destroy everything he’s worked for. According to reports, Harington’s character adds intensity and rivalry that raise the stakes higher than ever.
The Plot – Vacation Gone Wrong
In The Family Plan 2, Dan takes his family on a European vacation to make up for the chaos of their last adventure. But when an old enemy resurfaces, the family is thrown into another whirlwind of danger.
From London’s bustling streets to Paris rooftops, the film mixes comedy with high-energy action. As Dan tries to protect his family, he’s forced to face his past and prove that being a dad can be just as tough as being a secret agent.
Director Simon Cellan Jones explained that the goal was to “make the sequel bigger but keep it relatable.” The result is a blend of family warmth and blockbuster spectacle.
Action, Heart, and Holiday Fun
The first Family Plan became one of Apple TV+’s most-watched movies, thanks to its mix of action and family humor. The sequel continues that tone but expands the world adding new characters, thrilling locations, and holiday energy.
The film is produced by Apple Original Films, Skydance Media, and Wahlberg’s Municipal Pictures, with a runtime of about 1 hour 46 minutes. It’s rated PG-13, making it perfect for family streaming nights.
Why Fans Can’t Wait
The Family Plan 2 has all the ingredients for another hit: a beloved cast, clever writing, and high-octane moments balanced with heart. It’s a rare sequel that embraces fun while staying family-friendly.
For Apple TV+, it’s another step in building a lineup of feel-good action comedies that appeal to everyone. Expect fast chases, sharp humor, and a reminder that no matter how wild life gets, family always comes first.
