'Now You See Me: Now You Don't' steals American box office win; Beats 'The Running Man' with $21.3 million haul

"Now You Don't" -- the third installment in the crime heist franchise about a group of magicians -- debuted atop the North American box office, besting the Glen Powell-fronted remake of "The Running Man," industry estimates showed Sunday. "There aren't a lot of crime heist series that get to episode 3, simply because it's so hard to keep these stories fresh," said analyst David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research.
