Now You See Me: Now You Don’t cast

The constants in the Now You See Me franchise have been Jesse Eisenberg as J. Daniel Atlas, Dave Franco as Jack Wilder and Woody Harrelson as Merritt McKinney, and they are all back for this third movie. So is original star Isla Fisher as Henley Reeves, who starred in the first movie but was not in the second (replaced by Lizyzy Caplan, who appears to be MIA this time around). The quartet’s characters make up the movie’s central group, The Four Horsemen.

Another returning star is Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley, a veteran magician that advises the Horseman. Mark Ruffalo has also been an ally to the Horsemen over the course of the first two movies, but he is not listed in the official credits from Lionsgate, though according to multiple reports he will be reprising his role as Dylan Rhodes.

There are also a number of new additions to the Now You See Me: Now You Don’t cast, including Justice Smith (I Saw the TV Glow), Dominic Sessa (The Holdovers), Ariana Greenblatt (Barbie) and Rosamund Pike (The Wheel of Time).
