Justin Bartha says a third National Treasure movie is possible. National Treasure: Edge of History is a new OTT spin-off. The adventure-action series stars Lisette Olivera, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Bredda Wool, and Lyndon Smith. A young woman sets out to learn her family’s history and saves a Meso-American treasure.

Also Justin Bartha, who played tech-savvy nerd Riley Poole in the original film, appeared on a recent episode. In an interview, he said he was hesitant to accept the TV show offer. A third National Treasure movie may be developed, he said.

Justin told  he was sceptical about Disney’s planned spinoff series. When he thought of his daughters, his initial mistrust faded. The actor said his girls can only watch National Treasure. Bartha said he has known the movie’ writers, Cormac and Marianne Wibberley, for a long time. He also said he knew film director Jon Turtletaub and executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer would’respect the franchise’ So, he told them, he didn’t back out.

Although Jerry Bruckheimer told that National Treasure 3’s script is complete. “There’s a script,” revealed The Hangover actor. I’m done. There have been other scripts, but the stars must align. He said Jon Turtletaub is Hollywood’s unsung hero. “Those movies are his soul. He’s brilliant, humorous, and buoyant, like the movies. I think he needs to feel comfortable and that he can see the movie before it happens.

2004’s National Treasure was followed by 2007’s sequel. Nicolas Cage movies did well at the box office despite poor reviews. These movies are still popular 15 years later, and people still like them.

5 reasons why the National Treasure films remain a fan-favorite

1. A fun family adventure heist film

Both the National Treasure movies can be watched AND enjoyed thoroughly with your family. Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, it was regarded as a ‘four-quadrant film’. This pointed to the fact that the movie was able to pull in adults, couples, families, and the 18 to 24-year-old age group who were all fascinated by a treasure-hunt film.

2. Justin Bartha in Equal parts silly and serious

Therefore the USP of these films is that they do not take themselves too seriously. Our protagonist Ben is not as cool as Indiana Jones but his encyclopedic knowledge about a vast range of subjects and his will to fulfill his family legacy are what moves him forward. The plot is mostly predictable and convenient, however, when Ben says, “I am going to steal the Declaration of Independence,” you cannot help but root for him and wait to find out how he does it.

3. Nicolas Cage is an entertainer!

Nicolas Cage is indeed a delight to watch in both these films. He is enthusiastic about his treasure hunts, he solves clues brilliantly, and he somehow seems to know a lot about security systems in the Library of Congress. You can’t help but marvel at him. Cage portrayed this character wonderfully in both films.

4. A wonderful cast

Every actor in the cast did a great job making it a complete package. Harvey Keitel as Sadusky is the perfect contrast to Nicolas’ Ben. Jon Voight as Nic’s father has some valuable insights to provide. Sean Bean and Ed Harris are just the perfect villains for the storyline. Diane Kruger as Abigail Chase – Nic’s partner in crime and later love interest, and Justin Bartha as his dorky right hand bring earnestness to the scene.

5. For the cinematography, set design, and stunts

If you love some elaborate set designs and appreciate the beauty of well-executed stunts, the National Treasure films are just for you! While Some scenes are shot in actual locations, others and designed or invented. The characters make use of several make use of every prop piece in the historically-themed settings.
