Den of Thieves 3 in Development, Returning Cast & Director Announced
is a go at Lionsgate.
The first Den of Thieves movie was released in 2018. It was followed by the 2025 sequel, Den of Thieves 2: Pantera. Christian Gudegast directed both films, which see Gerard Butler play Detective Nick 'Big Nick' O'Brien and O'Shea Jackson Jr. portray Donnie Wilson.
Following the recent box office success of Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, Lionsgate, Tucker Tooley Entertainment, and G-BASE have announced that Den of Thieves 3 is now in active development.
Gerard Butler is expected to return as Big Nick in Den of Thieves 3. He's also expected to produce the movie through his G-Base banner alongside his G-BASE banner. O'Shea Jackson Jr. is also expected to return, while Gudegest is in talks with Lionsgate to write and produce the film.
Tucker Tooley Entertainment will co-produce and jointly finance Den of Thieves 3. A release date has not yet been set.
Den of Thieves 2: Pantera hit theaters on January 10, 2025. It has grossed approximately $47.5 million at the worldwide box office.
Speaking to ComingSoon about Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, Gudegast said, 'The long form of the story was sort of mapped out from the beginning. When researching Den 1, we came across so much material that we couldn't jam it into one movie. It's almost like we have material for several seasons of a show. Then we knew we'd sort of sparse it out over the course of several films. So, you know, we were trying to build a franchise from the very beginning based on very elaborate, fascinating heists all over the world.'
Den of Thieves 2: Pantera is now available on digital, while it will arrive on 4K UHD and standard Blu-ray (with DVD/digital copies) on March 4, 2025. The first movie is currently streaming on Max, TNT, TBS, and TruTV.

Does 'John Wick 5' Come Next After 'Ballerina'?
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." THE franchise is going strong. Now spanning five movies and a TV series (and counting), it's clear that this is not only a violent, unique, and action-packed world, but one with just about endless possibilities. In fact, the latest film, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina (or, as we'll refer to it to avoid that clunky title, Ballerina) is proof that the franchise can explore new ground and succeed even without the titular Mr. Wick himself. Sure, Keanu Reeves is in the movie, but the main character is Ana de Armas's Eve—and watching her kick ass in a Wick-esque manner should fill any Keanu-size holes in your heart in the meantime. It's clear that the Wick franchise will continue from here—it's just unknown in what direction. This is a series and brand that's now been making Lionsgate lots of money for over a decade, and with multiple recognizable stars in the fold, there are a bunch of ways things could go. For example, we know that we could do another John Wick movie, and now it seems more than possible that we could do another Ballerina movie. But there's also a spinoff film coming on the John Wick: Chapter 4 character Caine, played by Donnie Yen, which will also star Rina Sawayama's Akira (Yen will also direct). We've already gone down the road of a prequel; the little-watched limited series The Continental focused on the exploits of a younger Winston (Ian McShane). So that's probably not a road that will particularly be gone down, though Wick director Chad Stahelski and McShane don't think particularly highly of it. So maybe don't rule out some kind of re-do. Again: the possibilities do feel kind of endless. But we know the primary question that everyone is going to be asking after Ballerina—will we be getting John Wick 5? And at this time we do seem to have a pretty definitive answer. From the World of John Wick: Ballerina is set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4. It picks up the character of "The Director," played by Angelica Huston, who was introduced in Chapter 3, and, perhaps most notably, includes Keanu Reeves as played by John Wick. This is the key part of the equation, considering John Wick dies at the end of Chapter 4. That would seem to signify a closed book, right? But as we've established, the possibilities in this world are pretty endless. Most likely. Despite the titular character's death at the end of John Wick: Chapter 4, Lionsgate officially announced that John Wick 5 was in the works at this year's CinemaCon back in April. That being said, director Chad Stahelski is still a little apprehensive that the film will actually get made—because he wants to make sure it's as good as it can possibly be. "Look, everybody seems to want it," he said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "It's a matter of whether we crack it. We're actively working on it. It's just … is it going to be satisfying?" Throughout the conversation Stahelski repeatedly suggested that while they're early in the process on John Wick 5, it's still just that—early in the process. And that he hasn't even officially brought the idea to Reeves yet. Stahelski is meticulous, and holds himself to a high standard. And so he doesn't want to proceed with something until it's actually ready to proceed. "If we go down the road of John Wick 5 and build this story and decide this isn't right, there are probably going to be 10 other things we'll discover that we'll use for other things," he says. Which implies it still could not happen. But, he says, sooner or later, it probably will. "The studio would very much will it into existence, I'm sure, at some point," he says. "Look, they've been great and they've asked us to really try and we have a really good couple of ideas and we're going to try." But still, they are very early on. And it seems like for now the Caine spinoff, which has Donnie Yen attached to star and direct, Rina Sawayama attached to reprise her Akira character, and Mattson Tomlin attached to write, is much further along in production, and will certainly come first. Now that much truly remains to be seen. But it would feel like kind of a missed opportunity if it didn't, right? Keanu Reeves and Ana de Armas are both bona fide movie stars, and scenes between the two of them are action magic. Let's say Wick 5 opens up with John Wick fighting his way up from hell. Might be a little tricky for him to meet up with Eve down there, but once he gets back to the surface, it feels like a pretty good bet that we'll see these two together (and with guns at each other's throats) again.

Jason Constantine, Lionsgate Co-President, Dies at 55
Respected Lionsgate executive Jason Constantine has died at age 55 after a long battle with cancer, the studio announced Thursday. The executive was a fixture on the festival circuit and a major player in the acquisitions space for years. He started his career more than 25 years ago at Trimark Pictures, the predecessor company of Lionsgate, where he served as director of acquisitions and rose through the ranks to become co-president of the Lionsgate motion picture group. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'John Wick' Boss Chad Stahelski Gets Candid About Franchise: "My Process Is F***ed" Steven Flynn, Former Gramercy Pictures and Focus Features Marketing Executive, Dies at 70 Joanne Gilbert, 'The Great Man' and 'High Cost of Loving' Actress, Dies at 92 He was an early champion of Saw and pushed for the studio to acquire the project after viewing the short film from then-unknown director James Wan and writer-star Leigh Whannell. The franchise has grossed more than $1 billion at the box office, as has the John Wick series, which came under Constantine's tenure. He also worked on The Expendables franchise; best picture winner Crash; Lee Daniels' Oscar-winning Precious, nominated for five Academy Awards and winner of two Oscars; and Rian Johnson's Knives Out, which was a sleeper hit at the box office. 'With his fearless spirit, creative energy and enduring talent relationships, Jason embodied the very best of our studio and our industry. His influence will continue to be felt in many of our most successful franchises,' Lionsgate said in a statement. 'His career was built around the principles that a great idea can come from anywhere, a box office triumph is meant to be shared by an entire team and our creative choices need to be bold and daring. We mourn the passing of a highly respected executive, a trusted partner and a cherished friend, and we extend our deepest condolences to his wife Kristin, his three children and his entire family.' Constantine was a native of California, earning his B.A. from Princeton University and his M.F.A in film production from Loyola Marymount University. He was a movie buff, known for an encyclopedic knowledge of facts and figures about films. His family asks that in lieu of flowers, mourners consider a donation to fund the brain cancer research of his neurosurgeons, Dr. Michael Lim at Stanford and Dr. Tim Cloughesy and Dr. Robert Chong at UCLA. He is survived by his wife, Kristin, and his sons, Lucas, Nicholas and Xander.
