The Big Picture Back in November, Jesse Eisenberg spoke with Collider and told us how desperate he was to make a sequel to the Now You See Me franchise. The magician-led heist movies have been a great hit with audiences and, surprisingly perhaps, for a serious actor like Eisenberg, are some of his favorite films. Now, a few months later, Eisenberg has confirmed that progress on the sequel is moving fast — and that they hope to shoot this year.
"Yeah, I did . Hopefully it will happen in the next six months. I think it will, it seems like it will. Yeah, it's really great," said the Oscar-nominated star of The Social Network. "I also agree with you.
I mean, this is kind of an arrogant answer, but I think it's because they hired, at the beginning, great actors. I'm including myself, but really I'm making the point that they hired like 10 great actors, and it's the kind of thing when you watch a movie and the plot is complicated, and you're trying to follow it, but at the center of it is people who are alive on screen, who seem to be bringing themselves, who seem to be having fun improvising within the thing.
And so when I'm reading this new script for Now You See Me , or Now You 3 Me as we've been calling it — I'll get in trouble for that — I'm thinking, “oh, wow, these actors who I'm friends with, who are all genius actors are gonna be so funny in this.” And I could see, “oh, we'll probably improvise this moment because I see they set up a really great foundation,” and so it's stuff like that to me. I love acting more than anything because that's my job.
