The greatest heists often involve more than just cunning and lockpicking—they involve family drama, chaotic reunions, and a whole lot of art. Prime Video and Gaumont are bringing this wonderfully chaotic premise to the screen with Masterplan, a brand new feature film set to stream later this year.
This French-Italian Prime Original is a delightful dive into high-stakes comedy, following a legendary art thief who recruits two young strangers to pull off an impossible score: stealing the world-famous Mona Lisa from the hallowed halls of the Louvre in Paris.
But as the heist unfolds, things quickly get stranger. The film pivots from a daring caper into an unexpected family saga when the thief reveals that his accomplices are not just co-conspirators, but his estranged children. Suddenly, their mission shifts from stealing priceless art to navigating a wildly chaotic reunion, where they must learn how to work together—and desperately try not to kill one another—if they hope to succeed in this audacious act.
The premise promises wonderfully awkward and hilarious interactions as these mismatched characters grapple with the pressure of the world’s most famous theft. Will their familial bonds prove stronger than their criminal instincts when faced with museum security and personal betrayal?
The film casts an incredible ensemble, featuring the legendary Stanley Tucci as the mastermind art thief Roger, alongside Simona Tabasco, Victor Belmondo, and Jay to bring this high-stakes comedy to life.
Filmed across the scenic landscapes of France and Italy, Masterplan is poised to deliver a visually rich adventure that balances witty dialogue with thrilling action. Fans can prepare for an unforgettable cinematic experience as they await the release in October.
