Released in 2013, Now You See Me introduced us to a group of criminal magicians known as The Horsemen as they were chased around Las Vegas by a disgruntled FBI agent. Now You See Me 2 takes place in China and sees the group attempt to pull off their biggest robbery yet. The first two movies star Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, and Morgan Freeman who are expected to reprise their roles in the threequel.

Now You See Me 3 does not yet have an official plotline, but we expect the movie to once again follow the shady dealings of the magical four and their adversaries. The movie is directed by Zombieland’s Ruben Fleischer, and is written by American Huste’s Eric Warren Singer, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies’ Seth Grahame-Smith, and Assassin’s Creed’s Mike Lesslie.
