“To the 90’s and Beyond” offers concise deep-dives into the origin, making, production, and legacy for movies of the 1990s, as well as looks at newer films that were influenced by the films that came out in the 1980s/1990s. It also serves as a companion podcast to “Around the World in 80s Movies”.
The wildly popular troupe of master illusionists known as the Four Horsemen do mostly for self in this outing, no longer the Robin Hoods of the glitzy stage one year removed from prior events. This one's more personal, putting a backstory to the behind-the-scenes ringleader of the Horsemen, FBI Agent Dylan Rhodes, tying in the mystery of his magician father's death with a connection to the magic debunking man from the first film, Thaddeus Bradley, who was the television reporter covering the fateful event back in 1984. In the present day, the quartet replace Henley Reeves character with a newcomer Rhodes has discovered from the 'underground circuit', magician Lula May, played by Lizzy Caplan, who manages to fit right in. Circumstances lead them to being coerced by a powerful tech billionaire pulling plenty of strings in the year since faking his death and living in Macau, Walter Mabry, who wants them to con their way into a high-tech security facility to steal a very valuable computer chip. Also out to trip up the Horsemen is Merritt McKinney's estranged twin brother, and the return of nemesis Arthur Tressler, the wily tycoon who hasn't taken kindly to losing millions to them during the events of the first film.
