Nicholas Cage, the lead actor in the movie National Treasure, has confirmed that there will be no National Treasure 3.
In an exclusive interview with Screen Rant, Nicholas Cage, the lead actor in the movie, revealed about the possibility of a third movie.
When the interviewer asked about the progress of the movie, Cage emphatically stated that there were no plans to make the project.
“No, there is no National Treasure 3. If you want to look for treasure, don’t look towards Disney, okay? There’s no such treasure there.”
Rumors of National Treasure 3
Even though it’s been twenty years since the National Treasure movie was released, fans are still churning out rumors about the possibility of a National Treasure 3 movie.
This rumor was rekindled after the TV series National Treasure: Edge of History aired in 2022 to 2023. However, unfortunately there is no positive news regarding the film project after this rumor emerged.
What Nicholas Cage said in the above interview regarding the possibility of National Treasure 3 can be taken as the final confirmation of the film project.
However, this is also good news for Cage. The reason is, in recent years, Cage has more often played characters who have a serious nature than the characters in the National Treasure films. For example, his appearance in the movie Arcadian.
The first National Treasure movie was released in 2004 and is an adaptation of the novel of the same name. The movie was a hit in the market and one of the most successful movies of the early 2000s.
The story centers on a character named Ben Gates (Nicholas Cage). Gates tries to repair the reputation of his ancestors by showing various evidence in the form of historical objects buried in various places.
The success of the movie led to a sequel titled National Treasure: Book of Secrets, which was released in 2007. Fans of the movie were curious when there would be a third movie, but it seems that their hopes will not be fulfilled anytime soon.
