Also new to the series is Rosamund Pike, who appears to be the villain of the piece. Morgan Freeman reprises his role as Thaddeus Bradley, as does Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes.
Ruben Fleischer directs "Now You See Me: Now You Don't." Development on an upcoming fourth film is already underway with Fleischer once more behind the camera.
"We were so happy with the director's cut, we're already developing the next chapter," Lionsgate's Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson said according to Variety. "We can't wait for audiences to discover what he's done with the third film and thrilled he'll be making even more magic with us."
The "Now You See Me" films have so far proven to be dependable money makers for Lionsgate. In 2013 "Now You See Me" made $351.7 million against a $75 million production budget, and in 2016 "Now You See Me 2" took in $334.9 million against a reported $100 million budget. Not exactly Marvel blockbuster numbers, but still good.
On the other hand, the "Now You See Me" flicks are not exactly critical darlings. The first film earned a 51 percent critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, while "Now You See Me 2" not only was hit with a 34 percent critics score, but a similarly dismal 53 percent audience score.
Still the critics can say what they like as long as a movie puts butts in seats, and so far the "Now You See Me" films have certainly done that.
We'll have to wait and see exactly how the world takes the third entry, "Now You See Me: Now You Don't". The threequel releases in theaters on November 14.

Sweet Moment Dog Diagnosed With Cancer Joins Owner Wedding-Dress Shopping
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Those shopping for wedding dresses often bring some of the people closest to them—moms, sisters, friends—but one woman's unexpected guest has melted hearts. Katie Phillips couldn't imagine the "special day" without her bestie, her 6-year-old yellow Labrador named Koa. The two have been together since the dog was only 8 weeks old, through all of life's chapters. "She is truly my soul dog and best friend," Phillips told Newsweek via TikTok, "the kind of dog who follows you from room to room, always wants to be involved, and has the happiest and silliest personality." But, back in February, Phillips received heartbreaking news: Koa had oral melanoma. The Labrador quickly underwent surgery and received a vaccine to prevent the cancer from spreading, but, two weeks after Phillips got engaged in June, she learned the cancer had spread to Koa's lungs. With limited treatment options, Phillips and her fiance are holding onto hope for a miracle. And, without knowing how much time Koa has left, Phillips takes her by her side in everything she does, including the wedding-planning process. Phillips found a wedding-dress shop in Charleston, South Carolina, that allows dogs in by request. She instantly knew Koa needed to join her. Phillips reached out to the owner and was granted the green light to bring her pet. Phillips posted a July 8 TikTok video to the account @phillipske, sharing how that "special day" of wedding dress shopping with Koa turned out. It was nothing but smiles all around. Koa had a field day, living her best life during the appointment. She looked at Phillips with admiration. "She was going in and out of the dressing room with me, tail wagging nonstop," Phillips said. "Her eyes were brighter than ever that day. It felt like she knew I am getting married, and she was there in a maid-of-honor role." Screenshots from a July 9 TikTok video of Katie Phillips bringing her dog to go wedding dress shopping.

"She's so proud to be there!" commented a viewer, while a second added: "She's just one of the girls. Literally one of the most precious things I've ever seen." A third person wrote: "They deserve to be there for all the important moments!" Someone suggested: "Please get her own dress. She looks so happy to see her mom in one."

Owner Raises Fence to 7ft to Stop Dog Escaping—Camera Films Plan Backfiring
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog owner had to raise their garden fence to 7 feet because their dog kept jumping it, but their plan immediately backfired, and they caught it all on camera. In a viral TikTok video shared in May under the username @introvertsguidetolife, the poster's dog can be filmed running in circles near the fence, before successfully managing to climb to the other side of it in under 20 seconds. "Just added another 12" to the 6ft fence to stop him from jumping it … It didn't work," reads layover text in the clip. @introvertsguidetolife This #escapeartist can now jump a 7ft fence #baddog #dogsoftiktok #doglife FYI He only jumps when we leave the house (to try and come with us). We know this and keep him locked in a room when we leave so he can't get out. We specifically left the door open and walked out of the house to try and test the new fence height before we redid the entire fence at 7ft. He has never jumped the fence while we've been home with him. ♬ Bad Reputation - Joan Jett The poster says in the caption: "This escape artist can now jump a 7ft fence. FYI He only jumps when we leave the house (to try and come with us). We know this and keep him locked in a room when we leave so he can't get out. "We specifically left the door open and walked out of the house to try and test the new fence height before we redid the entire fence at 7ft. He has never jumped the fence while we've been home with him." While the poster's dog showed some impressive skills in the clip, most dogs are actually unable to jump higher than 6 feet. Of course, there are exceptions, including breeds such as Border collies, Australian kelpies, and German shepherds; all are known for their impressive jumping abilities and can occasionally clear 6-foot barriers. Typically, the best jumpers are young, energetic dogs, and those trained in agility. If you own one of these athletic breeds, you may need a fence taller than 6 feet to safely contain them. Fortunately, the average household dog doesn't have the ability to clear 6-foot fences. Smaller dogs, in particular, are unlikely to be able to jump that high. The current world record for the highest dog jump stands at about 6 feet 3.5 inches, achieved by Feather, a 2-year-old female greyhound, according to Guinness World Records. Thankfully, such extreme jumping ability is rare. Stock image: A dog jumps a country gate by trees.

One user, Brain Machine Broke, commented: "Everyday I am grateful my boxer/aussie isn't aware she can jump the 4ft chicken wire containing her despite knowing she can clear the couch." SARA posted: "The dog: wow look my mom upgraded my obstacle course to the next level!" WeenieHutJrsLifetimeMember added: "Y'all need to actually train and discipline him. Just adding more height seems to just challenge him to try harder to escape." Newsweek reached out to @introvertsguidetolife for comment via TikTok comments.
