| ~ Mabry to the Horsemen, as he meets them for the first time |
Walter Mabry is a technological prodigy tycoon, a business leader, a science admirer and the son of banker and business leader Arthur Tressler. He is the hidden main antagonist of the 2016 film Now You See Me 2, which serves as a sequel to the 2013 released film Now You See Me.
He was portrayed by Daniel Radcliffe, who is known for playing protagonistic and heroic character Harry Potter and admits that he has felt fulfilled in portraying this character due to this being the very first time the actor has ever portrayed a villain.
History
When the four main characters called The Four Horsemen and their leader Dylan Rhodes secretly arranged for a robbery to be committed against Walter Mabry's father Arthur Tressler of his money from his bank account, it was perceived by Walter Mabry to have been them having managed to have also stolen money from him as well, and plotted revenge along with his father. Walter Mabry had a business partner named Owen Case, who took over complete leadership of Mabry's company for his own reasons. Walter Mabry faked his death (an idea he got from one of The Four Horsemen) and planned a way to get back at Owen for it as well. He came up with a perfect plan for it in which he would use The Four Horsemen as a means of managing to do so and to obtain a technological data chip called "The Stick".

- They are geniuses with unlimited access to technology.
- They served as the main antagonists while their fathers served as the secondary antagonists.
