It’s being seen in a big way.
“Now You See Me: Now You Don’t” landed in the No. 1 spot in theaters with its Friday opener, bringing in $8.4 million, according to The Numbers.
The heist film, the third installment in the “Now You See Me” franchise, stars Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher, Lizzy Caplan and Morgan Freeman.
The Hollywood Reporter called the flick, which is expected to earn up to $24 million this weekend, a “serviceable threequel with too few tricks up its sleeve.”
In the second spot was the dystopian action thriller “The Running Man,” with sales of $6.45 million.
A reboot of the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, which was based on Stephen King’s 1982 novel, it stars Glen Powell, whom The Post said, “radiates movie-star energy.”
“Predator: Badlands,” which was in the top spot last Friday, fell to third place, with a $3.5 million take.
The romantic drama “Regretting You,” which was in second place last week, moved down to fourth, with $1.22 million in revenue.
In fifth was the horror film “Keeper,” which took in $1.05 million on Friday, its first day in theaters.
