At the heart of the film is the enigmatic Four Horsemen group, a top-tier "magic crime syndicate." Off-screen, the cast members have become true "magic experts," performing their own stunts with genuine skill. For instance, Dominic Sessa progressed from having no knowledge of card shuffling to becoming proficient in fancy card-cutting techniques. Dave Franco took it a step further by learning the spectacular "flame-summoning playing cards" trick.
One notable aspect of Now You See Me 3 is the enhanced scale of the third film in the franchise, especially in terms of its spectacular locations, according to South Korea's Chosun Daily.
In an effort to bring "the greatest show on Earth" to the big screen, the production team chose a diverse range of global film locations. The movie takes viewers on a journey across continents, with scenes shot in such iconic cities as New York, the charming streets of Belgium, the opulent landscapes of Abu Dhabi, the romantic backdrop of France, and the historic settings of Hungary.
Since its debut, the series has provided fans with a thrilling experience. In the first film, the Four Horsemen magically "emptied" a corrupt bank's vault in front of thousands of people, leaving audiences in awe as cash rained down. "It defies imagination!" In the sequel, the group's righteous "thievery" reached new heights as they pulled off a precise poker chip transfer in a high-security system, leaving viewers to exclaim, "It's like magic-infused parkour!"
The previous sequel was a box office success in China, generating revenues of 638 million yuan ($96.5 million) compared to $63.5 million in North America, according to industry tracker Beacon.
