Now You See Me 3 Officially Titled Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, Now You See Me 4 Confirmed

Big news for fans of the Now You See Me series: the much-anticipated third installment is officially titled Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, and there's even more excitement with the announcement of Now You See Me 4 in development. This thrilling update was shared on-stage at CinemaCon by Adam Fogelson, chair of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, who also confirmed that Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is set to hit theaters on November 14, 2025, as previously announced.

Director Ruben Fleischer, known for his work on Zombieland and Venom, has signed on with Lionsgate to not only direct Now You See Me: Now You Don’t but also to helm the fourth film in this lucrative action-heist franchise, which has amassed $700 million at the global box office to date.

The first two films featured stars like Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, and Morgan Freeman. The third installment will introduce a new generation of illusionists, including Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa, and Ariana Greenblatt, with Rosamund Pike also joining the cast. Fleischer reunites with Eisenberg and Harrelson, stars from his debut film Zombieland, for Now You See Me: Now You Don’t. His recent successes include Uncharted, which earned over $400 million worldwide, and Venom, grossing over $850 million globally.

Bobby Cohen, who developed and produced all previous films in the series, will return to produce the third and fourth installments alongside Alex Kurtzman of Secret Hideout. Meredith Wieck will oversee the project for Lionsgate.

Fogelson praised Fleischer's work, saying, “Ruben has delivered all of the twists and turns and sleight-of-hand that audiences expect from this franchise while upping the stakes and scale in every way. We can’t wait for audiences to discover what he’s done with the third film and are thrilled he’ll be making even more magic with us.”

Fleischer shared his enthusiasm, stating, “Directing Now You See Me: Now You Don’t was as much fun as making any movie in my career. It combines two of my favorite things — heist movies and magic — and working with this incredible cast was truly magical. Of course, I want to keep it going.”

Previous reviews of the series have been mixed. IGN's review of the first film gave it a 6.3/10, noting that “Now You See Me seemed so promising, but it squanders its cool cast and nifty premise on smarmy, shallow characters and a flimsy, nonsensical plot.” The sequel, Now You See Me 2, scored a 6.2 from IGN, with the comment, “Now You See Me 2 isn't the worst magic act in town, but it's all flash and no substance.”

With Now You See Me: Now You Don’t and Now You See Me 4 on the horizon, fans of the franchise have much to look forward to, as the series continues to weave its spellbinding narrative of magic and heists.
