The Instigators is the newest original comedy film from Apple TV+ and stars Matt Damon and Casey Affleck.

Is there any scum worse than politicians who enrich themselves on the backs of their hard-working constituents? Rory and Cobby don’t think so, and set out to enact change personally in “The Instigators,” the new original comedy film debuting on Apple TV+ on Friday, Aug. 9. But it soon becomes clear that the pair are in way over their heads, and as their scheme falls apart, they have to rely on each other to get out of the mess they’ve mutually put themselves in. See the hilarious results for yourself with a 7-Day Free Trial of Apple TV+.

About ‘The Instigators’

Rory (Matt Damon) and Cobby (Casey Affleck) are quite the odd couple indeed: a desperate father and an ex-con thrown together to rob a corrupt politician’s ill-gained earnings. They hatch a plan to steal his filthy lucre for themselves, convinced that they’re doing the right thing not only for themselves, but for all the people wronged by this lawmaker’s scheming.

But when the heist goes wrong, the two find themselves engulfed in a whirlwind of chaos, pursued not only by police but also backward bureaucrats and vengeful crime bosses. Completely out of their depth, they convince Rory’s therapist (Hong Chau) to join their riotous getaway through the city, where they must put aside their differences and work together to evade capture — or worse.

What Other Titles Are Available on Apple TV+?

Apple TV+ is stocked almost exclusively with high-quality originals featuring regonziable stars.

If you like quality originals featuring big-name actors, Apple TV+ is definitely the streamer for you. Its library is jam-packed with such titles, including the recent spy comedy “Argylle,” the upcoming “Bad Monkey” starring Vince Vaughn, and hundreds of other selections from every genre imaginable.
