Lionsgate Moves Ahead on 'Now You See Me 4' as Producer Teases Franchise Reset

Producer Bobby Cohen says the sequel was greenlit before the threequel opened, signaling a faster timeline toward public spectacle.

Overview

  • Producer Bobby Cohen says the fourth film will reset the series, allowing the Horsemen to perform openly rather than remain fugitives.
  • He describes a shift back to large-scale, crowd-facing shows as the core creative focus for the next installment.
  • Cohen says Lionsgate approved development of the sequel before Now You See Me: Now You Don't reached theaters, reflecting early studio confidence.
  • He adds that the wait for the next chapter will be shorter than the near decade between the second and third films.
  • Now You See Me: Now You Don't opened to $75.5 million worldwide and topped the weekend box office, according to Variety.
