If National Treasure 3 (2025) does happen, there could be some interesting theories about the plot, characters, and new mysteries that Benjamin Gates (Nicolas Cage) will explore. Here are some intriguing theories:
1. The Secret of the President’s BookIn National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007), Benjamin Gates is given a secret mission by the President of the United States involving page 47 of “The President’s Book.” The sequel could delve deeper into that secret, which could be a political conspiracy, an ancient treasure, or a shocking historical secret that could change America forever.
2. The Treasure of the City of Gold (El Dorado)
The previous installment dealt with the City of Gold in North America, but National Treasure 3 could expand the search to South America, where there are many legends about El Dorado. Ben could follow clues from ancient Inca or Mayan texts to find the real treasure.
3. Freemason or Illuminati ConnectionPrevious installments have mentioned the Freemasons. In Part 3, the film could explore the connection between this organization and the Illuminati – another mysterious secret society, with a treasure of global significance. Maybe Benjamin Gates will have to compete with a mysterious group that wants to control this historical power.
4. American Independence Code
The film could go in the direction of finding a secret American Declaration of Independence, hidden by the founding fathers. This document could contain a secret about the true origin of the United States or a treasure that the presidents have kept hidden.
5. Secret of AtlantisThe new installment could take Benjamin Gates on a journey across the ocean in search of the lost civilization of Atlantis. Plato’s ancient writings or a secret government document could lead him to this mystery.
6. Treasure of the Templars or Arthurian LegendsThe film could delve into the legend of the Knights Templar or King Arthur’s legendary treasures such as the Excalibur Sword or the Holy Grail, expanding the setting from America to Europe.
7. New Rival – Dangerous Treasure Hunter
In the new installment, a villain could be an international treasure hunter or a secret organization that directly confronts Benjamin Gates. They may possess important clues, but their motives are not good.
8. Ancient ProphecyThere may be a mysterious prophecy or prediction that was coded hundreds of years ago, and only Benjamin Gates can decipher it to prevent an important event in the future.
9. The Secret Path to the White HouseThe film could reveal a secret tunnel system that no one knows about under the White House, containing a treasure or a secret weapon from the founding of the country.
10. Teaming Up with a New Character – Passing on the LegacyBenjamin Gates could pass on the treasure-hunting mission to a new generation, perhaps his son/daughter or an outstanding student, paving the way for new installments in the future.
