Den of Thieves 3 in Development, Returning Cast & Director Announced

Den of Thieves 3 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.

Who is returning for Den of Thieves 3?

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.
