Nine years after the last installment, the third chapter in the "Now You See Me" franchise, officially titled "Now You See Me: Now You Don’t," is set for a November 14 release. Tonight, the studio dropped the second official trailer for the highly anticipated sequel, along with a batch of new stills (pictured below).
This installment is helmed by Ruben Fleischer, known for the "Zombieland" series and the first "Venom" film, who is also confirmed to return to direct the fourth movie. The script comes from a stacked writing team that includes Eric Warren Singer ("American Hustle"), Seth Grahame-Smith (author of "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter"), original franchise writer Ed Solomon, and the duo of Gavin James and Neil Widener ("A Minecraft Movie").

The film sees the return of original cast members Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Mark Ruffalo, and Morgan Freeman, with Isla Fisher also reprising her role from the first movie. They are joined by franchise newcomers Rosamund Pike, Justice Smith, and Ariana Greenblatt.
Per the official synopsis: The original Four Horsemen have long since disbanded, but Atlas recruits a new generation of magicians to join him. Together, they get involved in a diamond money-laundering scheme to take down a transnational criminal organization, and along the way, his former partners return to lend their support.
