Disney is home to some of the biggest film franchises that the world has ever seen, but sometimes making new entries, even in very successful franchises, can be a tall order. Disney still hasn’t found a script it's happy with for a sixth Pirates of the Caribbean movie, but we know that work is continually being done on that. It turns out the same is true of a potential National Treasure 3.
National Treasure, starring Nicolas Cage, was a solid hit that spawned one sequel, Book of Shadows, which in turn teased a sequel of its own, though it’s one that has not materialized in the nearly 20 years since that film was released. There has been on again off again talk about a third entry over the years. Most recently, in 2024, producer Jerry Bruckheimer indicated a new film was on the drawing board, though it’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about it.
