Considering the rocky road the now 23-year-old franchise has followed toward a third installment, Smith’s and Lawrence’s excitement is understandable.
There were whispers from the time Bad Boys II premiered in 2003 that a third movie would happen, then everything went into limbo—until 2016, when both stars said it was on its way.
Two more years passed, then in early 2018 it looked like the wheels were finally turning, with scripts and possible directors. Today’s announcement is what makes it officially, uh, official.
Bad Boys For Life is tentatively slated to hit theaters sometime in 2020.
