Big news for fans of the Now You See Me series: not only is the third installment officially titled Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, but a fourth film is already in development. This exciting update was revealed on-stage at CinemaCon by Adam Fogelson, the chair of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, who also confirmed that Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is still set to hit theaters on November 14, 2025.

Director Ruben Fleischer, known for his work on Zombieland, Uncharted, and Venom, has signed on with Lionsgate to not only helm Now You See Me: Now You Don’t but also to develop and direct the fourth installment of this action-heist franchise, which has already grossed $700 million worldwide.

The first two films featured a talented ensemble including Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, and Morgan Freeman. The third film introduces a new generation of illusionists, with Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa, and Ariana Greenblatt joining the cast, alongside Rosamund Pike. Fleischer will reunite with Eisenberg and Harrelson, who starred in his debut film Zombieland.

Bobby Cohen, the original developer and producer of the series, will return to produce Now You See Me: Now You Don’t alongside Alex Kurtzman of Secret Hideout. Meredith Wieck will oversee the project for Lionsgate.

Adam 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 himself expressed 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.”

IGN's review of the original Now You See Me gave it a 6.3/10, noting, “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, received a 6.2, with IGN stating, "Now You See Me 2 isn't the worst magic act in town, but it's all flash and no substance."

With the franchise continuing to expand, fans can look forward to more thrilling magic and heists in the near future.
