Eisenberg's character showcases intricate magic tricks throughout the film as one of the Horsemen, possessing a diverse range of magical skills. This include escapology, sleight of hand, and cardistry. His forte lies in grand illusions, often requiring elaborate setups and special effects. However, his proficiency in mentalism appears to be less pronounced compared to his other magical talents.

Whether a similar approach will be taken in the future remains uncertain. Nevertheless, with Jesse Eisenberg's dedication to making new magic tricks for the upcoming film, anticipation builds for what promises to be an even more iconic experience.

In the sequel, his character introduces Lula (Lizzy Caplan) as the new member, stepping in for Henley (Isla Fisher). This raises the question: who will be the next member of The Eye and the Horsemen?
