Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is showing off new magic tricks for the franchise’s third installment.
On Tuesday, April 29, Lionsgate debuted the first trailer for Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, which sees original cast members Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco reprise their roles as the Four Horsemen in the follow-up to 2016’s Now You See Me 2. Morgan Freeman also returns.
Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith Rosamund Pike and Dominic Sessa join the cast in new roles.
The franchise famously follows the team of illusionists as they use their stage productions to perform elaborate heists.
A logline for the new film teases, “The Four Horsemen return along with a new generation of illusionists performing mind-melding twists, turns, surprises and magic unlike anything ever captured on film.”

In an October interview with GamesRader+, Eisenberg opened up about reuniting with Ruben Fleischer on set. “We’ve been in Budapest for the last three months, and I almost made it till the end without breaking anything,” he said, referring to his finger that he broke while filming. “And the movie is really astounding.”
The A Real Pain actor added, “Every day we walk onto set and pinch ourselves because the set pieces, the magic, the ensemble, it’s really, truly miraculous.”
The cast has stayed tight-lipped about the movie since it was announced. However, Eisenberg told Collider in March 2024 that the screenplay was finished and he anticipated shooting to start in the “next six months.” Production moved quickly and the cast wrapped filming in November 2024, according to a post on Instagram.
The third flick sees the return of screenwriters Ed Solomon and Boaz Yakin, who wrote the script with Seth Grahame-Smith. Fleischer, who also directed Eisenberg in Zombieland and its sequel, will serve as the director.
In August 2024, newcomer Greenblatt told Nylon that she had been going to magic school in preparation for the upcoming movie. “I’ve been at the Magic Castle every other day, learning magic,” she said. “My magic teacher is so awesome; he is one of the best ones. So I get to know all the magician tea.”
A fourth Now You See Me movie is already in the works. Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is in theaters Nov. 14.
