‘Now You See Me: Now You Don’t’ Hits Theaters in November & a Fourth Outing Is in the Works

Released back in 2013 and directed by Louis Leterrier, the first Now You See Me introduced audiences to the secretive world of underground magic and follows magician Daniel “Danny” Atlas and his team of talented illusionists known as The Four Horsemen. The group use their affinity for hypnosis and magic tricks to carry out social justice, and soon find themselves being chased by the FBI, Interpol, a magic debunker, and a corrupt insurance magnate.

While the movie was met with mixed reviews from critics (51% on Rotten Tomatoes, alongside 70% from audiences on the Popcornmeter), it was a huge box office success, grossing $351.7 million worldwide against a budget of $75 million, spawning a sequel, Now You See Me 2, in 2016. The follow-up once again finds the Four Horsemen in trouble, this time in Macau, China, and once again cast its spell on the box office after grossing $334.9 million worldwide despite even worse reviews (34% from critics and 53% from audiences).

Fans have been patiently awaiting Now You See Me 3, which has officially taken their advice and titled the sequel Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, ever since. Thankfully, the sequel is coming soon, with Lionsgate all set to release Now You See Me: Now You Don’t on November 14, 2025. A fourth outing is already in the works.
