National Treasure star Justin Bartha will reprise his role as Riley Poole in the Disney+ TV series spinoff of the popular franchise.
The “National Treasure” Disney+ series will feature a familiar face. Disney announced on Monday that Justin Bartha will reprise his role as Riley Poole from the two “National Treasure” films in the TV series, albeit in a guest starring capacity. The upcoming live-action “National Treasure” TV series expands the franchise that was first introduced in the 2004 film starring Nicolas Cage as history buff and amateur adventurer Benjamin Gates. Cage and the main cast returned for the 2007 sequel “National Treasure: The Book of Secrets,” which found them embarking on another adventure tied to U.S. history. The Disney+ series centers on Jess (Lisette Alexis), a brilliant and resourceful DREAMer who embarks on the adventure of a lifetime to uncover the truth about her family’s mysterious past and save a lost Pan-American treasure.
