Get ready to be amazed—again! Lionsgate has officially dropped the first trailer for Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, the much-anticipated third installment in the thrilling magician-heist series that began 

With a mix of old favorites and exciting new cast members, the Four Horsemen are back—and they’re about to pull off their most daring trick yet.

 The Four Horsemen Return

The magical crew we’ve come to love is back in action:

  • Jesse Eisenberg reprises his role as J. Daniel “Danny” Atlas, the group’s confident and cerebral leader.

  • Woody Harrelson returns as mentalist Merritt McKinney.

  • Dave Franco is back as sleight-of-hand specialist Jack Wilder.

  • Isla Fisher rejoins the team as Henley Reeves, marking her return after missing the second film.

Also returning to the franchise:

  • Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes, the former FBI agent turned ally.

  • Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley, whose loyalties always seem a bit mysterious.

New Cast, New Tricks

Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is also bringing fresh energy with several new characters played by rising stars and established talent:

  • Ariana Greenblatt

  • Dominic Sessa

  • Rosamund Pike

  • Justice Smith

Each new cast member is expected to add fresh dynamics to the story, with hints that the Four Horsemen may be expanding their team or facing off against equally cunning magical rivals.

 A Director Who Believes in Magic

Directed by Ruben Fleischer, known for Zombieland and Venom, this third entry promises to balance action, intelligence, and illusion in a style that fans of the franchise have come to expect. According to Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson, Fleischer’s cut impressed the studio so much that a fourth film is already in early development.

“We were so happy with the director’s cut, we’re already developing the next chapter,” Fogelson said during CinemaCon earlier this month. “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.”

 A Quick Recap of the Magic So Far

The franchise began in 2013 with Now You See Me, introducing the Four Horsemen—magicians recruited to pull off high-stakes heists using only their skills and spectacle. The second film, released in 2016, upped the ante with new tricks, new characters, and a deeper look into the group’s mysterious benefactors.

In this third film, we find the magicians seemingly retired, enjoying quiet lives—until they're lured back for one final, grand illusion. Fans of the series can expect the signature mix of slick sleight-of-hand, twisty plot reveals, and dazzling visuals that define the Now You See Me world.

Release Date and Trailer

Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is set to hit theaters on November 14, 2025. The just-released trailer teases high-energy heists, new illusions, and a fast-paced plot with plenty of twists.


 What to Expect

  • The return of Henley (Isla Fisher) is likely to stir up the dynamics among the group.

  • New characters may either join the Horsemen or challenge them in an international game of deception.

  • With Ruffalo’s character now a full-time member, his dual perspective as both former law enforcement and magician insider should offer new plot twists.

Fans of mind-bending storytelling, stylish visuals, and clever dialogue will find Now You See Me: Now You Don’t to be a worthy continuation of the beloved series.
