The Bad Boys are back! Will Smith teams up with Martin Lawrence once again for the third movie! |
It's been 16 years since the last "Bad Boys" film, but Hollywood A-lister Will Smith shows that time makes no difference in the action-packed hilarious new trailer for "Bad Boys For Life".
The third buddy cop action film also sees the return of Smith's other gun-wielding half, Martin Lawrence, as the duo teams up one last time to bring down a Miami cartel boss.
With original director Michael Bay washing his hands clean off this sequel, Belgian directors Adil El Erbi and Bilall Fallah are set to take the reins with additional cast members Vanessa Hudgens ("Spring Breakers"), Charles Melton ("Riverdale") and Alexander Ludwig ("Vikings") added into the mix.
"Bad Boys For Life" is due for release in January 2020, but Smith has since been keeping busy with other exciting things on his plate, never allowing his presence to fade from tinsel town completely.

Recently fans would recall the fresh prince as the charming blue genie in Disney's live action adaptation of "Aladdin", which managed to rake in some pretty good reviews and a worldwide box office total of over USD 1 billion.
Aside from the much anticipated "Bad Boys For Life", Smith's upcoming projects are looking pretty interesting as well.
FLASHBACK: Can you believe the first "Bad Boys" movie was released in 1995? |
This October, fans can look forward to "Gemini Man", a sci-fi action film by Oscar winner Ang Lee. The premise? Will Smith plays a hitman, whose younger clone is after him. So basically, audiences would get two Will Smiths for the price of one movie ticket!

Ever the versatile one, Smith will also be dabbling in animation this year. "Spies In Disguise" from Blue Sky Studios is a spy comedy film, where Smith plays super spy, Lance Sterling, that due to a laboratory experiment, is turned into a pigeon and has no choice but to attempt to save the world in that flighty form.

Whilst to date 2020 seems to have slated no more films for Smith aside from "Bad Boys For Life", Smith has been keeping busy with his Facebook funded reality show, "Will Smith's Bucket List".
The show follows bad boy Will Smith as he ticks off one bucket list item at a time, some of which have been skydiving in Dubai with his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, swimming in shark infested waters, starring in a Bollywood movie, racing a formula 1 car and doing a stand-up comedy set with Dave Chappelle!
Whatever Smith does, his fans will surely follow. With over 77 million fans on Facebook and 36 million followers on Instagram, you bet everyone has their eye on whatever Will Smith WILL do, for now, and in the near future.
