The Now You See Me franchise is set to make a fourth movie appear.

Ruben Fleischer has signed a deal to develop and direct a fourth entry in the action-heist film series, with Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson announcing the news Tuesday at CinemaCon. The original 2013 feature Now You See Me centers on a group of magicians who perpetrate robberies during their performances.

Fleischer helmed the movie that hits theaters Nov. 14 and includes returning franchise stars Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher and Morgan Freeman. Among the cast additions for the film are Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa and Rosamund Pike.

“Ruben has delivered all of the twists and turns and sleight-of-hand that audiences expect from this franchise while upping the stakes and scale in every way,” Fogelson said. “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.”

Producers on the fourth film include Bobby Cohen, who has worked on all the titles in the franchise, and Secret Hideout’s Alex Kurtzman. Meredith Wieck oversees the new one for the studio.

The Now You See Me franchise, which includes the 2016 sequel, has collected $687 million globally.

“DirectingNow You See Me: Now You Don’twas as much fun as making any movie in my career,” added Fleischer. “It combines two of my favorite things — heist movies and magic — and working with this incredible cast was truly magical. Of course I want to keep it going.”

Robert Melnik negotiated the deal for Lionsgate. Fleischer is represented by CAA and Sloane Offer.

CinemaCon is the annual event for exhibitors and Hollywood studios that runs this year from March 31 to April 3. It is presented by Cinema United (formerly the National Association of Theater Owners).
