On Thursday, Hollywood Reporter shared news that the newest Taken films, Taken 3, is going to be released in 3D.

According to the online publication, another release, Lucy, was done in 6,000 3D and iMax 3D screens across China and made $20 million in ticket sales in the first weekend, which is why they think Taken 3 may do well too.

Lucy was reportedly the most successful launch of all time for a French film in China as it took in over $44.8 million at the box office.

"Some territories have shown strong interest in distributing Taken 3 in 3D, along side its 2D release," said Fabrice Denizot, the chief marketing officer for EuropaCorp.

It will also be released in 3D in France and additional markets for the DVD release.

"We are very careful with 3D. When a 3D version is considered to bring even more intensity to the film, we are working very closely with filmmakers to ensure a great visual experience. Lucy's 3D version was praised by industry professionals and the audience wherever it was screened. And so will Taken 3," EuropaCorp CEO Christophe Lambert said.

Taken 3 will be released in China with its local partner, Fundamental Films, which also partnered with EuropaCorp for the release of the successful Lucy.
