Now You See Me: Now You Don’t — When It Drops, Who’s Back, and How to Watch
Gearing up to steal the spotlight, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t lands in days, unleashing the franchise’s third high-wire heist with new magicians joining the crew and a world-spanning con to match.
The Horsemen are almost back. Now You See Me: Now You Don't hits theaters November 14, 2025, and yes, it looks like the franchise is actually mixing things up this time instead of just shuffling the deck.
Release date and where to watch
The movie opens exclusively in theaters on November 14, 2025. If you were hoping to watch it at home right away, sorry — there is no streaming date yet, so you will be waiting a bit.
The cast: familiar faces and new blood
Core crew returns: Jesse Eisenberg is back as Daniel Atlas, Dave Franco returns as Jack Wilder, and Woody Harrelson does the two-for-one again as Merritt McKinney. The trailer also drops the biggest surprise: Isla Fisher is back as Henley Reeves, which longtime fans were absolutely not expecting.
Morgan Freeman also reprises his role as Thaddeus Bradley, which is always fun, if only because that character is perpetually five steps ahead of everyone until he suddenly isn't.
New recruits this time: Rosamund Pike (yes, Bond alum from the Brosnan era, Die Another Day) joins the franchise, and the trailer sure makes her look like the main antagonist. Also onboard: Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith, and Dominic Sessa — the footage suggests they are playing trainee illusionists under the guidance (loosely defined) of the old pros.
One person not coming back: Lizzy Caplan, who played Lula May in the 2016 sequel, is not in this round.
So what is it about?
The trailer teases the Horsemen resurfacing after roughly a decade off the grid, promising a bigger, flashier setup than we have seen from them before. There is a diamond job, there are dangerous people to outmaneuver, and there is the sense that The Eye is pulling strings again — or at least watching closely.
'A diamond heist reunites retired Horsemen illusionists with new performers Greenblatt, Smith and Sessa as they target dangerous criminals.'
That is the official logline via IMDb. There is also a hint that the crew is up against an outfit that has been operating for generations, which means fewer clean exits and more improvising as they chase the mystery they have stirred up for themselves.

If you are into slick cons, high-gloss magic, and the kind of third-act reveals that make you question whether you missed an entire subplot, this one looks like a prime ticket. And with that cast lineup — plus the newbies likely getting put through the wringer — the trick could actually be worth the setup this time.
