Words on the street are Daniel Radcliffe is joining "Now You See Me 2". Michael Caine allegedly spilled the beans during an interview with HeyUGuys at the Royal Albert Hall on Wednesday night, October 1.
"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," the Alfred Pennyworth in Chris Nolan's Batman film series allegedly said. "I thought it'd be funny, me and Daniel Radcliffe as father and son."
"Now You See Me" became a sleeper hit when it was released in summer 2013, collecting $351,723,989 worldwide against a $75 million budget. The action thriller follows a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances and reward their audiences with the money.
Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Dave Franco, Woody Harrelson and Caine who starred in the first film are expected to return for the sequel. Jon M. Chu will replace Louis Leterrier as director. It is slated for June 10, 2016 release in the U.S.
