The heist film “Now You See Me” is coming to theaters nationwide May 31, and in celebration of the impending release, a new motion poster has been released. Check out the poster below the post. (But don’t stare at it too long!)

Also, there’s a “Now You See Me” Diamond Heist Challenge for fans of the film to enter in. Here’s more about the contest below the post:

In honor of the elaborate, dazzling heists executed by a super-team of the world’s greatest illusionists, Summit Entertainment, a LIONSGATE® company, announces the NOW YOU SEE ME “Diamond Heist Challenge.”

In this magical challenge, all thirteen diamond playing cards – from the Ace through the King – have been hidden in various places online, from various websites to social media platforms, even in the New York Times crossword puzzle from Friday, May 3 (your first hint!). Like the characters in the film, players will have to look closely to uncover the mystery. Discover the hidden diamonds and join the ranks of the world’s greatest illusionists!

Once each of the thirteen diamond playing cards are found, participants can unlock exclusive video content featuring the stars of NOW YOU SEE ME utilizing Blippar, the image-recognition phone app. Each of the thirteen images, when Blipped, will unveil a unique video.

Here is how to Blipp:

“Now You See Me” is about a group of illusionists who are professionals at pulling elaborate heists:

“NOW YOU SEE ME pits an elite FBI squad in a game of cat and mouse against “The Four Horsemen”, a super-team of the world’s greatest illusionists. “The Four Horsemen” pull off a series of daring heists against corrupt business leaders during their performances, showering the stolen profits on their audiences while staying one step ahead of the law.”
