The news comes just as the third movie in the franchise, Bad Boys for Life, hits theaters this weekend.

Chris Bremner, who worked on Bad Boys for Life, is set to write the script according to the report.

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are expected to return, and “the plan is not to have the same time lag between Bad Boys II and Bad Boys for Life. The time lag was due to several factors, such as spiraling budgetary costs, but also about finding the right story.”
