Will Smith Gives BAD BOYS 3 Update and Explains Why He's Doing Another Sequel
I recently re-watched the very first Bad Boys movie, and I forgot how awesomely entertaining it was! It was a great film, with great and fun characters, and it actually got me really excited for Bad Boys 3.
Will Smith recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live and was asked if the film was going to start shooting in March of next year, which is what Martin Lawerence told Kimmel recently. Smith didn't confirm the that, but he did say:
"It is very, very, very close. It is very, very close. It's very close. ... We do one a decade!"
Smith went on to talk about why he decided to come back to the franchise after all these years to do another one saying:
"Let me tell you, I love that dude. That's among the best times I've ever had making movies. So I'm looking forward to it."
"That dude" he's referring to is Lawrence. They had such great chemistry together in these films, and they are absolutely hilarious. It'll be a blast to see them back together again in another action-packed comedic adventure.
As you know, Michael Bay is the filmmaker that brought this action franchise to life. However, since he's focused on Transformers all the time, the directing reins for the third film have been handed to The Grey and Smokin' Aces filmmaker Joe Carnahan. I couldn't think of a better director to take on the challenge. I think he's going to give us something completely insane!
