Will Smith and Martin Lawrence reunite for fourth Bad Boys movie

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence have revealed that they will reunite for the fourth installment of their famous cop series, Bad Boys.

Other actors shared an amusing video on social media, showing Smith arriving at Lawrence’s home to announce the news to fans.

Development of the sequel, which follows 2020’s Bad Boys For Life, is said to have been halted after Smith assaulted Chris Rock at last year’s Oscars.

But on Tuesday, Sony Pictures announced that the untitled film is in early pre-production.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer is expected to return for a fourth film, as are Bad Boys For Life directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah.

The Bad Boys series follows the adventures of two detectives in the Miami Police Department, Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett, played by Smith and Lawrence respectively.

The film will be Smith’s second major attempt on the big screen after the infamous slap last March – after which he was banned from Academy events for 10 years.

He is currently starring in the historical drama Emancipation, in which he plays a runaway slave.
