If you were a fan of the first NOW YOU SEE ME movie, chances are you’re going to check out the sequel that’s in the works. So far we know that G.I. JOE: RETALIATION director Jon Chu will helm NOW YOU SEE ME 2 with Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, and Mark Ruffalo all expected to reprise their roles. Now Michael Caine can be added to the list of returning stars; the man dropped some pretty big news regarding the sequel tonight suggesting that Daniel Radcliffe will be playing his son!
Michael Caine gave the following info:
"There’s a sequel to Now You See Me and we’re shooting in London. I shoot in December, the whole of December in London, and my son is Harry Potter. I thought it’d be funny, me and Daniel Radcliffe as father and son."
I love that Michael Caine refers to another actor as one of their character names, what a funny pisstaker. I hope Radcliffe mentions in his next interview that he can’t wait to work with Alfie or Alfred. This sounds like a great idea for the sequel; as someone who was lukewarm on the original, this movie needs a few great ideas to work its magic on me.
NOW YOU SEE ME 2 is currently scheduled for release in 2016. Now let's take a look at some Radcliffe professionalism:
