Just before the second movie rolls into cinemas, director Jon M. Chu has been confirmed to direct Now You See Me 3.
Chu will premiere Now You See Me 2 in cinemas this summer, and will then start up work on the third movie, which once again revolves around the mysterious masters of illusion, the Four Horsemen.
Lionsgate must be very confident of the summer movie, but let’s not forget how well the first one did a couple of years back. Now You See Me, which starred Jesse Eisenberg, Dave Franco, Woody Harrelson and Mark Ruffalo, among others, made over $360 million worldwide. They all return for the sequel, which also sees Daniel Radcliffe, Lizzy Caplan and Michael Caine also appear.
Now You See Me 2 opens on June 10th.
