SYNOPSIS

The world of international intrigue makes for strange bedfellows in Columbia Pictures’ new comedic adventure I Spy, starring Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson under the direction of Betty Thomas.

Special agent Alex Scott (Wilson) and middleweight world champion Kelly Robinson (Murphy) are reluctantly paired for a dangerous mission to recover the Switchblade, the U.S.’s latest and most technologically sophisticated reconnaissance aircraft. The prototype spy plane has fallen into the hands of a nefarious arms dealer Arnold Gundars (Malcolm McDowell), who plans to sell it to the highest bidder – a rogue terrorist with access to nuclear warheads. After the U.S. government fails to retrieve the plane through the normal undercover channels, the president asks Robinson to provide civilian cover for agent Scott to find the stealth aircraft before the terrorist transforms it into a delivery system for weapons of mass destruction.
