New details about third Now You See Me movie will reunite the original cast — Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, and Dave Franco — for another magical heist. The movie will be directed by Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland, Uncharted), and will feature a new story following the events of the 2016 sequel.

As part of Lionsgate's CinemaCon presentation, where ScreenRant was in attendance, the first look at Now You See Me 3 has been revealed. It will now be called Now You See Me: Now You Don't, the reveal marking the first movie in the franchise not to have a number in its title. The studio also shared the first trailer for the sequel, which sees Jesse Eisenberg's J gathering the group together, alongside new magicians, for another grand heist. Check out the details of the new trailer below:

“It is very good to be back,” J says. The four horsemen are on stage, doing a trick, making someone disappear. Then, J meets the three new, young characters.

He needs their help to steal the Heart Diamond. He wants to hurt a family that has been selling diamonds to war lords, drug dealers, terrible people. They perform a heist at a party in which they steal the diamond.

“8 magicians against a worldwide criminal network.”

One by one, the trailer reintroduces the original horsemen, with references to past films, like Merritt saying, “open sesame” to a bookshelf door. Then, there are various magic tricks performed in intense situations, including some fights.

What Now You See Me's Title & Trailer Say About The Third Installment

A New Generation Of Magicians Is About To Arrive

The cast of Now You See Me is returning for a mission that will also see multiple new characters at the forefront, seemingly preparing a new generation of magicians. Aside from the returning Horsemen, the movie will also mark the return of Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes and Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley, while newcomers include Ariana Greenblatt, Dominic Sessa, Justice Smith, and Rosamund Pike. Since the trailer is teasing "8 magicians" as part of the story, the Horsemen are but one half of the larger whole.

The reintroduction of the Horsemen indicates this will be an important movie for more than just their potential apprentices. It's unclear what they've been up to since the events of the second film, meaning there could be lots of catching up to do as the team reunites. What this means for their long-term schemes, however, remains unclear. Their plan to steal the Heart Diamond is a noble one, which could also include plenty of thrilling and comedic twists in the story, like those seen by the end of Now You See Me.
