In the movie, like any heist movies, Hart brings together his international crew on 777 flying from London to Zurich. The movie stars many talented mavericks that includes Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Vincent D'Onofrio, Úrsula Corberó, Billy Magnussen, Jacob Batalon, Jean Reno, Burn Gorman, and Sam Worthington.
