TOWER HEIST tells the story of Queens native Josh Kovacs who has managed one of the most luxurious and well-secured residences in New York City for more than a decade. Under his watchful eye, nothing goes undetected. In the swankiest unit atop JoshÂ?s building, Wall Street titan Arthur Shaw is under house arrest after being caught stealing two billion from his investors. The hardest hit among those he defrauded? The tower staffers whose pensions he was entrusted to manage.

With only days before Arthur gets away with the perfect crime, Josh's crew turns to petty crook Slide to plan the nearly impossible to steal what they are sure is hidden in Arthur's guarded condo. Though amateurs, these rookie thieves know the building better than anyone. Turns out they have been casing the place for years, they just didn't know it.

Celebrity guests to appear at the premiere include Tracy Morgan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Frances Sternhagen, Jason Sudeikis, Donald Trump and more.
