This Is the End 2 Highway to Hell: The Ultimate Afterlife Showdown
It turns out that eternal salvation is not exactly what it was cracked up to be. After spending an entire decade in the celestial realm experiencing infinite bliss, a supply of herbal refreshments that never runs out, and a non stop schedule of nineties boy band concerts, Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel are officially bored out of their minds. The perfection of Heaven has become a monotonous routine, but the afterlife is about to get significantly hotter and much more chaotic. This Is the End 2 Highway to Hell flips the script on the original apocalypse as the boys decide to pull off the ultimate prison break by escaping the pearly gates to rescue the friends they left behind.
Down in the depths of the underworld, the situation has taken a truly bizarre turn. Danny McBride has somehow managed to overthrow Satan himself through sheer stubbornness and ego. He has successfully transformed Hell into his own twisted and cannibalistic version of a never ending frat house. In this new infernal regime, he has enslaved the spirits of James Franco and Jonah Hill, forcing them to serve as his personal court jesters for his own dark amusement. To save the souls of their former friends and prevent a power hungry McBride from launching a full scale invasion of Heaven, Seth, Jay, and Craig Robinson must make the unthinkable choice to voluntarily descend into the fiery inferno.
Armed only with bottles of holy water, glowing halos, and their notoriously terrible improvisational comedy skills, the gang must navigate a landscape filled with demonized celebrities and their own deepest psychological nightmares. The journey is a divine comedy of errors that explores the true meaning of loyalty in the face of eternal punishment. Through a series of increasingly ridiculous and dangerous encounters, the group proves once again that a genuine bond of friendship is the only thing stronger than literal damnation. At the same time, they confirm a universal truth that everyone suspected all along: Danny McBride is definitively the worst person in the entire universe, whether he is dead or alive.
