The heist thriller Now You See Me: Now You Don't continues its impressive box office run, nearing a global earnings milestone. The film has achieved a worldwide gross of $210.6 million, surpassing several other notable films. It is now in close contention with the 2010 road-comedy 'Due Date,' starring Robert Downey Jr., trailing it by a slim margin of about $1.2 million.
With its current momentum, Now You See Me: Now You Don't is expected to overtake 'Due Date's' total earnings within days. The film also has its sights set on a higher box office target, needing an additional $28.6 million to surpass the $239.2 million mark set by 'The Bad Guys 2.' Despite critical division, audience scores indicate strong viewer engagement with the latest installment.
While the film is making strides, surpassing the box office performance of its predecessors, the first and second installments, appears unlikely given its current trajectory. The original film grossed $351.7 million and the sequel $334.9 million. A new group of magicians joins forces with the original Horsemen in the film to execute a daring heist against a dangerous heiress.
