It looks like Sony, after the disastrous Men In Black: International, are preparing to reboot the franchise again in an effort to bring it back to its former glory.
As of now, the script for the new movie is being written by Bad Boys For Life writer Chris Bremner and it seems that Sony really want this to bring Will Smith back into MIB HQ to front the movie and franchise once again, moving forward, although even having him appear in a passing the torch capacity would be desirable, like in Ghostbusters or Creed.
Whatever happens, Smith’s Agent J will be in the script… for now. But it’s clear that Smith will not be signing on until he’s read and likes the script.
You never know, we might see the MIB meets Jump St idea might make a return.
That all said, it would be nice, given that Tommy Lee Jones is almost 80 now, if they brought back Josh Brolin as the young Agent K because he nailed it in MIB III. Just a thought.
But then again, maybe not.
Thoughts, I know you have them and I wanna hear ’em all.

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….
