Background

In June 2025, it was announced that recurrent franchise composer Brian Tyler would return to score Now You See Me: Now You Don't. [1] Tyler recalled that he liked scoring the film, as he did for the first two, because of his exciting collaboration with the directors and producers as well as the incredibly unique musical language developed in the series. He added that the music combines elements which often are thought to be opposites: symphonic, jazz and electronic. [2]

Tyler admitted that there was a live band component to these films, with him playing drums, vibraphone, piano and guitars. However, in this film, Tyler used electronic sub-genres like drum, bass and drill for the new members of the team. This element provided a larger-than-life theatrical experience, which in turn also becomes emotional, transcendent and exciting. Tyler recalled his experience on doing stage magic in his childhood and being enamored with music, thus bringing together multiple elements which he found fascinating in his life. [2]

Reneé Rapp performed an original song for the film, titled "Lucky" which she co-wrote it with Alexander 23, Ryan Tedder, Omer Fedi and Ali Tamposi. The song was released as a single on October 30, 2025. [3] [4] Two tracks from the album, "Now You Don't" and "Now You See Me", released on November 6. [5] The album was released the same day as the film, on November 14, through Lakeshore Records. [6]

Reception

Filmtracks wrote "the score may be a lesser sibling compared to the other two but is still a whole lot of fun when it cooks, and it offers more than enough snazzy material to add to its predecessors on a compilation." [7] Gregory Nussen of Screen Rant wrote "The movie certainly looks nice, but Brian Tyler is back to compose the score, and there is no shortage of ham-fisted stings up his sleeve to overwhelm nearly any moment." [8] Eric Goldman of IGN wrote "Returning composer Brian Tyler once more does a lot of heavy lifting here, giving the film a rousing, engaging score that elevates several key sequences." [9] Owen Gleiberman of Variety and Tim Grierson of Screen International called the score "zany" and "fantastic". [10] [11]
