This week's NationalTreasure: EdgeOfHistory episode teases what NicolasCage's character has been up to since the last film in the series.
National Treasure fans know not to expect to see Nicolas Cage show up as Ben Gates in the Disney+ series National Treasure: Edge of History, but with a clip from this week's episode of the series featuring Justin Bartha's Riley, we now have a better idea of Gates' whereabouts.
In the clip from the series, when asked about what he's been up to, Riley shares,"Not retired. Ben and I have been working on this super important thing for the last three, four, 15 years." When pressed for more details, he reveals,"Let's just say, there's 47 reasons to be interested." In Book of Secrets, Ben and Riley aim to uncover a secret diary that is revealed to have been written by all of the presidents, with the secrets inside ranging from the JFK assassination to what's really in Area 51. In the film's finale, Ben is allowed to read from the book and, while it's never explicitly confirmed what he's seeing, page 47 is said to contain something"life-altering.
News of the National Treasure TV series ignited excitement among fans about what such a project could explore, though Disney+ was quick to confirm that it would explore an all-new set of characters, yet it was set in the same world as the film franchise. Some audiences might be disappointed that this new series doesn't directly connect to the cinematic universe, but producer Jerry Bruckheimer recently recalled that not all hope is lost for a third film.
"We said we'd like to make another National Treasure and they said, 'Sure, let's come up with a new cast,'" Bruckheimer shared with E! News earlier this month."At the same time, we were developing National Treasure for the theaters with Nicolas Cage—which we still are. So, that's ongoing."What do you think of the new TV series?
