Ben Affleck, Blake Lively walk the red carpet at SXSW festival

Ben Affleck’s 'The Accountant 2' and Blake Lively’s 'Another Simple Favor' premiered at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas, with both actors attending their films' red carpet events on March 8 and 7, respectively.

'The Accountant 2,' the sequel to the 2016 action thriller The Accountant, follows Christian Wolff, a brilliant but reclusive math savant who uncooks the books for his clients.

In this sequel, Wolff is drawn back into action after an old acquaintance is murdered, leaving behind a cryptic message: “Find the accountant.” As he works to unravel the case, Wolff realizes he must take extreme measures, enlisting the help of his estranged but highly lethal brother, Brax (Jon Bernthal).

Lively’s film, directed by Paul Feig, is a black comedy murder mystery that reunites Emily Nelson (Lively) and Stephanie Smothers (Anna Kendrick) on the Italian island of Capri, where Emily is set to marry a wealthy businessman.

'Another Simple Favor' will start streaming on Prime Video on May 1.
