A third film in the National Treasure franchise is officially in the works, with director Jon Turteltaub confirming the news during a podcast event. Nicolas Cage will reprise his role as Benjamin Gates, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer has approved the script. This announcement comes nearly two decades after the last film was released.
The franchise has seen renewed interest following the 2022 Disney+ series, which featured familiar characters and hinted at unresolved plotlines. Fans are eager for more adventures, especially with the potential for returning cast members from the previous films.
