How Will Smith and Martin Lawrence share the news in Bad Boys 4?
Will Smith just posted a video on Instagram with the caption:
“CLOSED UP TO THAT TIME!”
The video shows Smith getting into his car and heading to an unknown location while talking and recording on camera. He was even seen dancing to Nelly, P. Diddy and Murphy Lee’s Shake Ya Tailfeather from 2003’s Bad Boys II.
Smith stated:
“I wish I were you, don’t know what I’m about to show you.”
Then he reached his destination and knocked on the glass door. Martin Lawrence entered as the door slid open. Mike and Marcus reunite to announce Bad Boy 4.
Lawrence shouted.
“That moment is coming!”
Smith replied, “For life,” but both eventually realized that this pun might refer to a future movie rather than an already released film.

Smith went on to say:
“We shouldn’t have called him that.”
Lawrence tagged Smith in the video and shared it on his Instagram. Lawrence gave the update on the project in an interview on the cover of Ebony magazine in 2022. He stated that the Oscars event would not interfere with the film’s production.
He declared:
“At least we have one more.”
He went on to discuss the cultural impact of the first Bad Boys movie, released in 1995. He said:
“It is very large. It was important to us to unite and show that we can deliver and get people to the box office — that two stars of color, two comedy stars, can make money at the box office. “
The first film grossed $141 million worldwide in 1995, while the 2003 sequel Bad Boys II grossed $273 million. Bad Boys for Life, the third installment in the series, grossed $436 million worldwide, surpassing the previous installments combined.
