Synopsis

THE PINK PANTHER 2, the sequel to the 2006 worldwide hit, stars Steve Martin as he reprises the role of intrepid-cum-bumbling French police detective, Inspector Jacques Clouseau. When legendary treasures from around the world are stolen, including the priceless Pink Panther Diamond, Chief Inspector Dreyfus (John Cleese) is forced to assign Clouseau to a team of international detectives and experts.

This international specialist squad though is just as bumbling as Inspector Clouseau is. Their mission: To stop a globe-trotting thief who specialises in stealing historical artefacts and retrieve them.

Steve Martin is joined by his co-stars Jean Reno (as Ponton, his partner) and Emily Mortimer (as Nicole, the object of his awkward affections). The investigative dream team is played by Andy Garcia, Alfred Molina, Yuki Matsuzaki (LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA), Bollywood star Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Lily Tomlin.

The story is set in Paris and Rome and directed by Harald Zwart (AGENT CODY BANKS, ONE NIGHT AT McCOOL'S).
