20 Recent Movies You Had NO IDEA Were Box Office Hits

18. Now You See Me: Now You Don't

Now You See Me: Now You Don't is another film that didn't get all that much attention when it released last November, and with the threequel arriving almost a full decade after Now You See Me 2, many understandably questioned whether there was still a fanbase eager to head out for another installment.

But Now You See Me: Now You Don't made $243.7 million worldwide, which while a fair step down from the second film's $334.9 million, is still close to three times its $90 million budget.

It's worth noting that this sequel was quite sensibly produced for $30 million less than Now You See Me 2's $120 million, which helps offset the fact this threequel is releasing in a much dicier theatrical environment.

Like its predecessors, Now You See Me: Now You Don't had a relatively mediocre showing domestically - hence the lack of online discussion in mainstream circles - but cleaned up internationally, especially in Russia and China which alone account for more than 25% of its theatrical revenue.

And so, it seems rather unlikely we'll be left waiting another 10 years for Now You See Me 4.
