23 JUMP STREET and MEN IN BLACK Crossover Film Gets an Official Title
Obviously the Spider-Man reboot wasn’t the only upcoming production that nabbed a title at the Sony Pictures presentation during CinemaCon in Las Vegas. The long-talked-about Men in Black and Jump Street crossover was another winner that received its official name: MIB 23. So plans are moving forward.
Information about the movie was first leaked in 2014 after the massive Sony hack. The leaked emails revealed that Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill would return for another Jump Street film, but this time with a Men in Black flavor. However, MIB stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones won’t reprise their roles in the crossover and we won’t get to see Agent Jay and Agent Kay.
On top of finally getting a title (and proof that the film is actually happening), MIB 23 showed off with a logo as well.

Producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller have already rolled up their sleeves, while James Bobin (The Muppets) is expected to jump on board as director of the crossover. Other details about the action-comedy crossover are still unknown.
