AUSTRALIAN actor Isla Fisher is expecting her third child with husband Sacha Baron Cohen.

The news comes amid reports that Fisher pulled out of Now You See Me 2 due to her pregnancy, reports US Weekly.

“Production starts in November and she knew she wouldn’t be able to do it,” a source told the magazine. “She’s about three months along.”

The Great Gatsby star has been open about dialling down her career to focus on her family.

“Family is 100 per cent my top priority,” she told The Telegraph UK last year. “So I’m much more comfortable doing supporting roles right now. And often they’re the most interesting. You get to be a character actor.”

Fisher and Cohen are also parents to daughters Olive, 6, and Elula, 4.
