Nicolas Cage is doubtful NationalTreasure 3 will ever escape development hell. 'It's been 14 years. There's no there, there. So, is it fun to think about? Sure.'
Nicolas Cage addresses the chances of National Treasure 3 happening after the proposed third movie has languished in development hell. The Oscar winner stars in the action-adventure franchise as Benjamin Franklin Gates, a treasure hunter whose family has long sought after a legendary hidden fortune of the Founding Fathers of the USA and Freemasons. Gates seeks out to prove his family to be more than conspiracy theorists and help preserve history's lost valuables.
Launching in 2004, the National Treasure franchise has generally received mixed reviews from critics for its improbable premise and repetitive formula between the two films, though the performances from its cast and action sequences have received generally positive reception. The films have also been financial hits for Disney, with the first grossing over $347 million against its $100 million budget while the second grossed over $459 million against its $130 million budget.
"So often these things we read about are just conjecture without any base or foundation to it. I feel the same about National Treasure 3. It's been 14 years. There's no there, there. So, is it fun to think about? Sure." Cage's doubts of National Treasure 3 getting off the ground are sure to come as a disappointment to fans of the adventure franchise but may not come as much of a surprise. As the actor notes, it's been 14 years since development on the threequel was first announced to be underway, and though director/producer Jon Turteltaub said the writers behind the films would take their time on the third film, they seemed to still be struggling with finding the right angle for the story.
Cage isn't the only one to express uncertainty in National Treasure 3 being made as co-star Diane Kruger recently confirmed she hadn't heard any updates on its development and was concerned the cast members' ages would make it tougher to shoot the film.
