"[Dictating to The Ghost] Turned me on, indeed. Let's see, I was 23, something like that, a couple of years out of Cambridge. And I remember it was a Sunday afternoon, it was raining. I was still in bed. And someone starts knocking at the door. And, you know, I'd been out the night before and had a few drinks and what have you. So, I get the pillow and I put it over my head, and it starts up again. Knock, knock, knock, knock! And I get up, I'm swearing, I go to the door and there's this girl. She's soaking wet, but she just launches into this speech about the local elections. And that's it. I'm in love."

"[On his head-of-state jet to The Ghost] Spare me the bleeding-heart bullshit! Do you know what I'd do if I was in power again? I'd have two queues at airports: one for flights where we'd done no background checks, infringed on no one's civil bloody liberties, used no intelligence gained by torture. And on the other flight we'd do everything we possibly could to make it perfectly safe. And then we'd see which plane the Rycarts of this world would put their bloody kids on! And you can put that in the book!"

"[To Rycart on television] You cheeky fuck!"

"He was having dinner with the Vice President. That bloody Bly woman wouldn't even give him the phone. Oh, God. Oh, dear God. What's he got himself mixed up in? [Starts to sob]"

"[Burying face in between The Ghost's face and shoulder] I'm scared. I've never been scared in my life before, but I am now."

"[Reacting to an old picture of Lang, taken in his college days with a marijuana joint] Let's hope he didn't inhale."

"I doubt it very much. The gate will open automatically. Be sure to make a right at the bottom of the drive. If you turn left, the road will take you deeper into the woods and you may never be seen again."

"Forty thousand years of human language, and there's no word to describe our relationship. It was doomed."

"James Belushi - John Maddox"

"A less equable man than I might start to find your questions impertinent."

"David Rintoul - the Stranger"

"[To The Ghost getting out of bed] The modesty of the morning after?"

"Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes, a former FBI agent, the new leader of the Four Horsemen and the son of the late illusionist Lionel Shrike."

"Woody Harrelson as Merritt McKinney, a member of the Four Horsemen, and Chase McKinney, an associate of Mabry. They are twin brothers who specialize in hypnosis."

"Richard Laing as Lionel Shrike, a magician who drowned while performing an escape trick thirty years ago, Dylan's late father. The character was previously played by an uncredited Elias Koteas in the first film."

"Tsai Chin as Bu Bu, Li's grandmother, who owns a magic shop in Macau and is also a member of the Eye."

"Henry Lloyd-Hughes as Allen Scott-Frank, head of the Macau Science Center and member of the Eye."

"Ben Lamb as Owen Case, Walter's former business partner."

"David Warshofsky as Agent Cowan, an FBI agent and a skeptic of Rhodes'."

"Michael Caine as Arthur Tressler, the Four Horsemen's former sponsor, who wants revenge for losing his money and power."

"Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley, a magic debunker, exposing the tricks of other magicians; the grandmaster of the Eye and a friend of Lionel Shrike."

"Jay Chou as Li, a Macanese magic shop owner and member of the Eye."

"Sanaa Lathan as Deputy Director Natalie Austin, an FBI deputy director who tracks down Rhodes for helping the Horsemen."

"The Eye. It may not lie, but don't think for a moment that it can't be lied to. Seeing is believing. But is it truth... or just an illusion? People see the Horsemen as noble Robin Hoods. But are they? Or are they nothing more than common thieves? Depends on your point of view. Here's what you know: they robbed a bank in Paris from a stage in Las Vegas. They fleeced an insurance magnate out of hundreds of millions of dollars and disappeared from a roof in New York, always showering their devoted fans with money. Here's what you don't know: they left one man behind, framed, holding the bag... me."

"Are you listening, Horsemen? When you emerge, and I know you will, I will be there, waiting for you. 'Cause mark my words, you will get what's coming to you... in ways you can't expect, or imagine, but very much deserve. Because one thing I believe in is an eye for an eye."

"As the Horsemen like to say, magic is about controlling perception. You see them as champions of the truth. But are they? Or is that just another one of their illusions? So since they clearly love secrets, let's reveal some of theirs. Do you recall the death of Jack Wilder? What if I told you that he's not just alive, but he's actually right here! And do you know who else is here? The FBI. Let's let them in, shall we? And now, for the big reveal. There is a fifth Horseman. And he's not only their leader; he's also the biggest criminal of them all. Soon-to-be former FBI agent Dylan Rhodes!"

"Dave Franco as Jack Wilder, a magician specializing in card tricks. He is a member of the Four Horsemen."

"Before you die, Dylan, I would like you to really take this moment in because this is the consequence of your personal vendetta come to life and staring you in the face. I also want you to know that when you're gone, we're not going to stop. We're gonna destroy everything you believe in, starting with the Horsemen, and ending with the Eye. Now then, cast your mind back to standing by the banks of the river watching your father descend, disgraced and discredited. The horrid psychic pain as you have relived for years. I felt that same thing two years ago as you drained not just my father's fortune, but his dignity! And yet you took pleasure from it. This should bring back some childhood memories."

"You know, you make it almost too easy? I mean, even your hilarious attempts to make yourselves unpredictable, just follow the same pattern each time. Set up, set up, set up. Big reveal. Which, tonight, was going to be at the stroke of midnight, middle of the Thames? Tell me if I'm warm. Well, there will be a big reveal, and it will come now."

"Daniel Radcliffe as Walter Mabry, Arthur Tressler's illegitimate son, a young technology tycoon."

"I wanted to meet you. Everybody, really. I want to be a part of the Eye, OK? I said it. I do. And I want to use my magic for good, like you and Merritt and Jack, especially. Oh, that's right. I know that Jack is alive. I know that he faked his own death. I'm a huge fan of faking deaths. That was crazy! By the way, I am so sorry that Henley left you. You know what I heard... about Henley? No? Well, I heard that she got tired of waiting around. She lost faith, so she asked for an out, and the Eye gave it to her. But who knows, right? In matters of the heart, so difficult to tell. I mean, maybe she got sick of you. You ever think about that? Control issues? Maybe you just didn't tie her up tight enough."

"Do you guys ever think that the Eye is watching this? You know, that maybe this is even what they want? And at the exact right moment, they're gonna swoop in, and we'll be like, "Yes! Thank God you're here! Thank God! Just in the nick of time, Eye!" And then we'll just celebrate, and it was all worth it in the end? I don't even really think that, either, so... it's cool."

"Jesse Eisenberg as J. Daniel Atlas, a member of the Four Horsemen."

"Lizzy Caplan as Lula May, a new member of the Four Horsemen, replacing Henley."

"When I was six, my mom and I fled our country... on a raft... worse than you can imagine. The sun, the waves, sharks, people screaming, crying. I was terrified. Everyone was. They wanted to go back, but... [scoffs] ...my mom was so strong. She kept us all going for five days, until we made it. [Chuckles] And I still remember how they looked at her on the beach. I just, you know, wanted to be like her, strong and brave. So that's the day I decided I was never going to be afraid ever again. And I'm not."

"Yeah. You know that power you felt? That's from the land"

"[Driving truck through perilious mountain pass with assassins in pursuit] Cole! Are you comfortable?!"

"It's the sub-lie of the first original lie."

"Be a cactus. No big moves. No big moves. Be a cactus"

"Edna gave me a hand. She was high."

"[Repeated line] Did you tell her you wrestled in high school?"

"Adrien Brody as Leveque"

"Oh, London, the Lady in the Mist [Corrected by daughter]... The Gray Lady. [Corrected by daughter again]..."

"Mike Moh as Wagner"

"Tim Blake Nelson as Borislov"

"Chris Evans as Cole Turner"
