Los Angeles, August 20 - It has been 15 years since the second National Treasure film, starring Nicolas Cage. Over the years, there have been rumors about the third film in the series but there was no actual development towards the making of National Treasure 3.

While the hopes for the third film in the franchise were still there, Nicolas Cage, during a Reddit AMA thread, had almost silenced those hopes by saying that there would be no more "National Treasure 3" movie. But, months after what Cage had said, things have changed and all of sudden, the future of the National Treasure film franchise is looking bright.



Producer of the "National Treasure" film franchise, Jerry Bruckheimer has good news regarding the third film as he has confirmed that the script of "National Treasure 3" has been written and it is really good. During an interview with comicbook, Bruckheimer said that they will be sending the script to Cage soon.

"Let's hope we're working on the script right now. Hopefully [Cage] likes it, but it's really good. So I think we'll get it to him shortly", Bruckheimer told.

The first two National Treasure films - "National Treasure" (2004) and "National Treasure: Book of Secrets" (2007) - were successful at the box office, grossing over $806 million (without inflation) against the combined budget of nearly $200 million.



Meanwhile, the tv series titled "National Treasure: Edge of History" is already under development at Disney Plus. It is a continuation of, the National Treasure film series and will mark the return of both Justin Bartha as Riley Poole and Harvey Keitel as Peter Sadusky from the two National Treasure movies. Cage is not reprising his role from the movie in the show.

The creators of the series, however, remain hopeful that Cage could show up on the Disney+ series. "We're going to beg and plead and whatever," co-creator Marianne Wibberley told Deadline. "We'll have him in two seconds. He's our favorite actor out of everyone. We pitched him as Ben Gates before he was Ben Gates. He was our first choice".
