'National Treasure 3' Is Officially Happening, Director Confirms
Turteltaub said Disney has a script it likes and expects much of the original cast, including Nicolas Cage, to return.
- On Friday, filmmaker Jon Turteltaub confirmed that National Treasure 3 is "finally real" during a live podcast taping at the Philadelphia Visitor Center, revealing Disney has approved a script for the long-awaited sequel.
- It has been over six years since Disney greenlit the sequel, with Turteltaub citing the country's political climate as a reason for the nearly two-decade delay in producing another chapter.
- The director noted that "to whatever extent we can, everyone's back" regarding the cast, including Nicolas Cage and Justin Bartha, with Turteltaub adding they "finally have a script that I like."
- Cage has experienced a high-profile moment recently thanks to Longlegs and Spider-Noir, and with Indiana Jones currently retired, his character Ben Gates can fill the void for big-screen adventurers.
- Regarding the film's content, Turteltaub said, "I think we have to include that idea in the story somehow without making someone feel put off," hoping to address the country's current political state.
