Men In Black 4 gets a writer

Ok, I admit it, I liked Men In Black III. Falling somewhere between MiB and MiB2 as far as quality goes, it was a fun, but forgettable, romp.

Well it seems, according to Superherohype, that with a worldwide boxoffice topping $624million, Sony Pictures are keen to get Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith back for a forth movie and have hired Oren Uziel who worked on web series Mortal Kombat: Rebirth and the upcoming Aliens vs zombies, humans and vampires flick The Kitchen Sink, to pen the movie. He’s also working on 21 Jump Street 2. Busy guy.

Now, while nothing has been confirmed yet, it seems the rumours are that director Barry Sonnenfeld will be directing for the fourth time. Also, comingsoon chatted with Smith during the press tour for MiB3 about playing the part again and he seemed keen: “We’ll have to see what people say. If there’s a good reaction to this movie, it’s not something I would be against. Hopefully we’re not going to keep the same pattern. It was five years between the first and second and ten years between the second and third. That would be twenty years. I’ll be 63 years old. It’s just not a good look.”

What say you guys? Do we want another MiB? And am I the only one who wants to see Josh Brolin return?

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
