While National Treasure 3 has been buzzed about for over a decade now -- the rumor back in 2008 was that the Gates family would go in search of Atlantis in a proposed third film and that Disney had plans for a National Treasure 4 as well -- THR reports Bad Boys for Life screenwriter Chris Bremner is penning National Treasure 3 . Bremner is said to be scripting Bad Boys 4 for Sony.Bad Boys and National Treasure producer Jerry Bruckheimer is also reportedly involved with National Treasure 3.Long after he hunted national treasures, Nic Cage found himself hunting a white jaguar in Primal:THR doesn't mention whether the project is a reboot or merely a continuation of the series. They also don't say whether any of the stars of the first two films -- Nicolas Cage, Diane Krueger, Jon Voight, Helen Mirren, Justin Bartha, or Harvey Keitel -- will reprise their roles.It's also unclear whether Jon Turteltaub -- who directed 2004's National Treasure and 2007's National Treasure: Book of Secrets -- will return to helm National Treasure 3. IGN interviewed Turteltaub way back in 2008 where he told us "there will certainly be a third film that we desire and endeavor to make. But whether it gets made is all about the kind of things you just asked. Can we come up with an awesome story and great character development worthy of another movie? If not, we won't make it."Turteltaub also said at the time that the relative youth of America as a country has posed a challenge in coming up with new aspects of American mythology to explore, which might see a third film be more of a hunt for International Treasure."It gets a bit harder each time because with each film we desperately scrounge around to find every little thing we can use," the director told us. "So there are fewer and fewer ideas left with each movie. If we have to make things a bit more international, that's probably where we'll have to go next."What do you want to see the heroes of National Treasure have to steal in the next movie?
