It’s official – National Treasure 3 is coming!

News broke this afternoon (January 17) that a third film in the popular franchise is in the works.

Variety is reporting that Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer have tapped Chris Bremner to write the script.

If you don’t know, the first two films starring Nicolas Cage and Diane Kruger, centered on cryptologist Benjamin Franklin Gates. In the first movie, he found a treasure map on the back of the Declaration of Independence, and the second focused on missing pages in John Wilkes Booth’s diary.

Disney chief Bob Iger addressed the potential for a third movie at the annual shareholders meeting last year.

“I know that Jerry Bruckheimer who produced National Treasure 1 And 2 would like to make a third movie and I know that discussions about that film have gone on, probably since 2016, with our studio, but I know that they have not greenlit such a film,” he shared.

Bob added, “They have talked about a number of different possibilities both on the creative side and from a timing perspective and I just don’t have anything to announce, though I did speak with Mr. Bruckheimer not long ago about it and I know his passion for that franchise remains pretty strong. We love those first two films too, but we’re not quite there yet.”

You can stream National Treasure on Netflix now.

The 37-year-old actor was in attendance at the Synchronic after party hosted by Nordstrom Supper Suite on Saturday night (September 7) during the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto, Canada.

Nordstrom Supper Suite also hosted The Creative Coalition’s Spotlight Initiative Gala Awards Dinner at MARBL Restaurant with Marriott Bonvoy.

Honorees Keke Palmer, Nicolas Cage, Imogen Poots, Alex Wolff and Chloe Bennet were all in attendance, as well as presenters Dean Norris, Wilson Cruz and CCH Pounder.

During her acceptance speech, Keke amusingly said “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairytales. That’s a quote by Albert Einstein but don’t quote me on that, I might have butchered it.”

Alex Wolff said Nicolas Cage was the the reason he became an actor and dedicated his award to Nicolas. Nicolas then said he’s looking forward to one day working in a film with Alex because he needs to be with young people to stay in the ring. They start working on a film together in two weeks.

Chloe Bennet said her real name is Chloe Wong during her speech, and said she was always told she wasn’t white enough and lost out on roles from the judgement of her last name, so she adopted her dad’s first name as her stage name.

“I took his first name for my last name and the next day I booked my first role…I was told if I was a real activist I would change my name back, but I’ve always been Chloe Wong, I’m just Chloe Bennet to you,” she said.

FYI: Keke is wearing a Roberto Cavalli dress.
