Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is just around the corner.
The Four Horsemen — played by Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco — will return to the big screen as the third film in the heist-thriller franchise, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, hits theaters in November 2025.
The first film premiered in 2013 and captivated audiences with its storytelling and big twists and turns. Following a group of illusionists, the crew uses their magical tricks to stage a series of heists and right some wrongs.
A follow-up film was released three years later in 2016, chronicling the Four Horsemen after they were exposed by a foe and discovered the true secrets behind a secret society called the Eye. Ahead of the third installment’s release, Fisher, who sat out of the 2016 sequel, told PEOPLE that it was “such a joy” to reprise her role as Henley Reeves.
“Coming back felt a little like a family reunion — maybe a dysfunctional family,” Fisher told PEOPLE in October 2025. “We already had this incredible shorthand, so slipping back into that dynamic was easy and really fun.”
