Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are reuniting in “Bad Boys: Ride or Die.” The franchise’s latest installment sees their characters framed for a crime they didn’t commit. Smith believes the film’s high stakes and familiar characters will resonate with audiences.
“I’m thrilled about this project,” Smith expressed. “While we aim for a nostalgic feel, we also ensure the characters undergo age-appropriate experiences. It’s crucial to maintain excitement and make it enjoyable, but with an elevated touch. It’s popcorn with a unique twist.”
Bad Boys: Ride Or Die Gets A Title
Adil El Arbi and Bilal Fallah, the directors of the upcoming fourth installment of the “Bad Boys” franchise, faced a challenge in finding a suitable title since the original “Bad Boys For Life” had already been used. Despite the fact that the return of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence was the primary focus, the directors sought a clever moniker. After much deliberation, they settled on “Bad Boys: Ride or Die.” The filmmakers continued to explore various options up until last year, but ultimately found a resolution with this title.
El Arbi hinted at the potential title, “Bad Boys Ride or Die,” for the upcoming third installment of the “Bad Boys” franchise, despite the already existing “Bad Boys 4 Life.”
Emphasizing the comedic elements, El Arbi expressed their aim to bring laughter and entertainment to audiences. Martin Lawrence’s character, Marcus Burnett, is expected to showcase a significant evolution in this film, marking the culmination of his arc throughout the series.
