"My Spy: The Eternal City" is a 2024 American spy comedy film directed by Peter Segal. It serves as a sequel to the 2020 film "My Spy" and features a star-studded cast including Dave Bautista, Chloe Coleman, Kristen Schaal, and Ken Jeong reprising their roles from the previous film. The storyline revolves around JJ, a veteran CIA agent, reuniting with his protégé Sophie to prevent a catastrophic nuclear scheme aimed at the Vatican, which disrupts a high school choir trip to Italy.
