The Sting II

Após o assassinato de um amigo e companheiro de vigarices, Hooker e Gondorf organizam, como vingança, um golpe contra Macalinski, um chefe da máfia especialmente cruel que eles acreditam que terá mandado cometer o crime. Para isso, chamam os companheiros de sempre e recrutam ainda a elegante e sofisticada Verónica. A ideia é aproveitar os conhecimentos de Hooker no boxe para convencer o mafioso a apostar um valor altíssimo nele, num combate que Hooker terá obrigatoriamente de perder. Mas Lonnigan, a vítima deles no primeiro filme, é quem está por trás de tudo, e decidido a recuperar o dinheiro que perdeu, com juros.

The Sting II is a 1983 American comedy film and a sequel to The Sting, again written by David S. Ward. It was directed by Jeremy Paul Kagan and stars Jackie Gleason, Mac Davis, Teri Garr, Karl Malden and Oliver Reed.

Production

This film's continuity with respect to the first movie is disputed:

At the time of the film's release, Director Jeremy Paul Kagan claimed, "The Sting II is inspired by and is an expansion of the first Sting, rather than a continuation. The principal characters of Fargo Gondorff and Jake Hooker are based on two very famous real-life con men, and are totally different from the two characters in the original." Furthermore, the first names of the two lead characters have changed: Henry Gondorff has become Fargo Gondo…

However, characters in this film make specific references to events in the first film (the entire plot is driven by Lonnegan's desire to avenge his losses to Gondorff and Hooker in the first film), which would indicate this film was meant to be a direct sequel.
