Ruben Fleischer Confirms Exciting Details About “Now You See Me 4”
Ruben Fleischer has given fans a first look at what’s next for the Now You See Me franchise. In an interview with Variety, the director talked about the fourth movie and confirmed that Lionsgate is moving forward with the project.
Fleischer said the studio started discussing a new installment right after filming wrapped on the last movie. He explained, “When we were done shooting, they started to talk about it. I guess they’d seen a lot of the dailies and were feeling good about it and had the confidence to move forward. We’re working on the script now, and hopefully that’ll be ready so we can make it next year.”
The director also addressed Mark Ruffalo’s brief appearance at the end of the latest film. He said they hope Ruffalo will have a bigger role in the fourth installment, but scheduling has been a challenge.
“The biggest challenge with Mark is his schedule. He’s a very busy guy, and so he was only able to be in the film because we did some reshoots this summer. He wasn’t originally available over the course of principal photography. He actually wasn’t even available during our reshoots, but I was lucky to catch him for a day in New York, and we shot him against a green screen. That’s why he’s a hologram, as opposed to entering into the scene. We took what we could get,” Fleischer said.
It's very good to be back.
