Rumors are swirling that National Treasure 3 might finally be in development, with Nicolas Cage potentially reprising his role as Benjamin Gates for another high-stakes treasure hunt. While Disney has remained tight-lipped, recent industry speculation suggests that the long-awaited sequel could be closer than ever. After years of uncertainty, insiders claim that a script for National Treasure 3 is being refined, with a fresh take on history-driven action and cryptic puzzles. The story is rumored to involve a long-lost artifact tied to ancient civilizations, possibly connected to the legendary city of El Dorado.
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer has previously expressed interest in continuing the franchise, and sources suggest that Disney is considering a theatrical release instead of a Disney+ exclusive. While the National Treasure spin-off series Edge of History had mixed reception, the studio might be looking to revive the original film series with its beloved lead star.
