Disney+ Uncovers Official Title For ‘National Treasure’ Series

The official title for the National Treasure TV series on Disney+ has been revealed, and it’s all thanks to San Diego Comic Con.

The official title for the anticipated series was revealed in Disney’s lineup of panels for the upcoming event. The schedule reflected a panel title National Treasure: Edge of History on 21 July.

The panel is expected to gather the cast and executive producers to give fans an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the series. While Nicolas Cage and the rest of the cast of the original National Treasure movies won’t be appearing in the show, fans can get to know an all-new cast of characters as they search for new treasures and family secrets.

The next generation of puzzle-solving treasure hunters features Lisette Alexis as Jess Morales, Zuri Reed as Tasha, Jordan Rodrigues as Ethan and Antonio Cipriano as Oren.

Described as a DREAMer in search of answers about her family, Jess is a mystery lover with a natural talent for solving puzzles who will uncover her own buried history, as well as the truth about her parents and her connection to a long-lost treasure. Jess and friends will have to outwit stylish businesswoman and adventurer Billie (Catherine Zeta-Jones), a badass billionaire, black-market antiquities expert, and treasure hunter who lives by her own code.
