Everything you need to know about 'Now You See Me: Now You Don't'

Magic is well and truly back as the trailer for Now You See Me: Now You Don't has been released.

The third instalment sees the return of The Four Horsemen get up to more tricks, pull off more illusions, and of course, we can expect some twists, turns and some new faces along the way.

This latest film in the franchise comes after 2013's Now You See Me and 2016's Now You See Me 2 - so nearly a decade on, we're getting another one - but what can fans expect?

Here is everything you need to know about Now You See Me: Now You Don't.

Who is in the cast?

Fans will be delighted to know that we'll see the return of the Four Horsemen, Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg), Merritt McKinney (Woody Harrelson), Henley Reeves (Isla Fisher), and Jack Wilder (Dave Franco), along with Thaddeus Bradley (Morgan Freeman).

But where is Mark Ruffalo?

The actor played protagonist Dylan Rhodes in the previous films, but doesn't appear to be returning for the latest film, at least from the trailer, where he is nowhere to be seen.

We'll also be introduced to some new characters such as Veronika Vanderberg (Rosamund Pike), Charlie (Justice Smith), Bosco (Dominic Sessa) and June (Ariana Greenblatt).

The film is directed by Ruben Fleischer, best known for his films Venom, Uncharted, and Zombieland.

"The Four Horsemen return along with a new generation of illusionists performing mind-melding twists, turns, surprises, and magic unlike anything ever captured on film," according to Lionsgate.

From the trailer, we see a younger generation of magicians (Smith, Sessa, and Greenblatt) being recruited by Daniel (Eisenberg) to pull off a "bigger and better than anything you’ve ever seen."

The mission? To steal a diamond, but they'll need the help of the other Horsemen (Harrelson, Fisher, and Franco) as they turn their attention to a criminal organisation led by Veronika Vanderberg (Pike).

When will the film be released?

Now You See Me: Now You Don't is set to be released in cinemas later this year on November 15.

One X user shared: "Great day for 'Now You See Me' enthusiasts such as myself."
