In this new chapter the iconic gang—led by clever Egon Olsen—is pulled back into action when a mysterious offshore holding company quietly acquires key shares in dozens of Danish infrastructure projects. Egon’s old prison cell phone rings early one morning with the promise of a high‑stakes heist: the gang must infiltrate the company’s data centre, extract sensitive digital ledgers showing the shady deals, and expose the corruption to the public. Egon, ever the strategist, gathers his longtime partners Benny and Kjeld, and together they plot an audacious plan—except this time the adversary is not just local criminals, but an international financial network, making the game larger and more dangerous than ever.

The gang’s preparations reveal the changes time has brought: Benny, while still joyous and impulsive, now worries about leaving his children a legacy; Kjeld is more anxious than in his youth, aware of the risks and weariness of repeating the same tricks; Egon still radiates confidence, but beneath the hat there is a flicker of doubt—can his best plan survive the digital age? As the trio assemble gadgets, recruits, and schemes, they rediscover the thrill of the caper, but also the fragility of their bonds. The plan is set: midnight entry into the sleek tower, bypassing biometric locks, stealing the ledger file named “Project Nemesis”, and getting out before the corporate security team realises what’s happened.

Once inside the stark, high‑tech building, the gang encounter new obstacles: drones patrolling the corridors, encrypted servers, a ruthless CEO who personally oversees security, and a tense chase across rooftops in Copenhagen. The setting evokes a blend of old‑school heist humour with modern tension. The gang’s trademark gags—misplaced disguises, loyal but bungling side‑kick Fie, and Egon’s calm “since we planned it this way” line—remain intact, but they’re now set against sleek glass and steel rather than the dusty vaults of old. As they reach the server room, Egon’s plan hinges on a dramatic standoff with the CEO, while Benny must improvise when the backup generator fails and Kjeld distracts security using an elaborate but ridiculous diversion.

When the ledger is finally extracted, the gang realise the fight isn’t over: the holding company’s shell entities begin a retaliatory strike, using legal threats and media manipulation. Egon realises that exposing the truth means more than pulling off a heist—it means courage, public accountability, and staying true to one’s principles. The gang launch a carefully orchestrated leak to the press, broadcast the data, and defend themselves from legal pursuit. In a particularly poignant moment, Kjeld reflects that maybe this caper is not just about getting rich—it’s about setting things right and helping ordinary people harmed by the corruption.

Ultimately the finale sees the gang escaping with their brilliance intact, the villains exposed, and a new respect earned—not only from the public, but from each other. Egon, Benny and Kjeld stand on the quay at dawn, drinking coffee and sharing a laugh—they succeeded, but more importantly they survived. And in that quiet moment Egon admits he may have found a new kind of victory: one where laughter, friendship and justice matter as much as the loot.

This version of the film honours the spirit of the original: the wit, the elaborate planning, the oddball humour—and yet updates it for a changing world. It’s a caper with heart, a funny, thrilling, and positive story about camaraderie, change, and the idea that even small‑time criminals can choose to do big‑time good.
