‘Now You See Me: Now You Don’t’: release date, cast, plot, and a twist that will 'blow your mind'

The Horsemen are (almost) back! On Lionsgate’s third chapter of the Now You See Me franchise, we'll see the core crew, plus a younger trio of upstart magicians set up against a powerful crime family led by Rosamund Pike’s Veronika Vanderberg. Here's everything you need to know.

Release date

Now You See Me: Now You Don’t opens in theaters on November 14, 2025 via Lionsgate. Here's the official trailer:

Now You See Me 3 Cast

Returning: Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman.
New: Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa, Rosamund Pike as antagonist Veronika Vanderberg.
A few cameos are being kept quiet. Eisenberg has hinted the twist ending lands hard.

Now You See Me 3 Plot

The Horsemen start the film scattered, then regroup for a high-stakes job tied to a legendary “heart diamond.” Atlas recruits three younger illusionists - June, Charlie, and Bosco - who first enter the story by impersonating the famous crew with cutting-edge trickery. Veronika Vanderberg leads the powerful crime family on the other side of the heist.

Who’s making it

Director: Ruben Fleischer.
Writers: Eric Warren Singer, Seth Grahame-Smith, Michael Lesslie.
Producers: Alex Kurtzman, Bobby Cohen.
Score: Brian Tyler returns after composing the first two films.

Where it was filmed

Principal photography ran in Budapest with location work in Antwerp and a set-piece stretch in Abu Dhabi across Ferrari World, Yas Marina Circuit, CLYMB, and Louvre Abu Dhabi. Production wrapped in November 2024.

How it fits the series

This chapter leans back into the con-game dynamics of the first film, with bigger tech, a mentor-apprentice layer, and an emphasis on practical illusions that scale up into large public stunts. Ruffalo’s Dylan Rhodes is back in the mix, though marketing has kept his footage to a minimum.

What’s next

Lionsgate has a fourth film in early development. Let's just hope we don't have to wait 9 years for this one.
