Bad Boys for Life Trailer - Will Smith & Martin Lawrence

The Bad Boys Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) are back together for one last ride in the highly anticipated Bad Boys for Life.

BAD BOYS FOREVER
25 years after Bad Boys, 17 years after Bad Boys II, Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett are back for one last ride in Bad Boys for Life. For producer Jerry Bruckheimer, there’s one simple reason why the time is right for Will Smith and Martin Lawrence to return to their signature roles. “It’s always the right time for good movies, fun movies, entertaining movies, like this one is,” says Bruckheimer. “People love good entertainment. We have these two wonderful actors coming together with their humor and their edge. It’s very exciting for an audience and for me to make a movie like this.”

And Bruckheimer says that though so many years have passed, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence have picked up right where Lowrey and Burnett left off. “It’s the same fun as it was twenty years ago,” he says. “They have a good time. Will is the friendliest person in the world, and Martin is just funny – anytime you cut to Martin, you’re gonna get a laugh. You want to be in the presence of these two guys. That’s what it’s all about.”

ABOUT THE CAST
As an actor, producer and musician, two-time Academy Award® nominee four-time Grammy nominee and winner WILL SMITH (Mike / Producer) has enjoyed a diverse career encompassing films, television and multiplatinum records.

Smith’s vast filmography includes transformative portrayals of true-life icons in Ali, The Pursuit of Happyness, and Concussion. He has headlined an extraordinary list of films, including Hitch, I Am Legend, I, Robot, Independence Day, Men in Black I, II, and III and Suicide Squad.

MARTIN LAWRENCE (Marcus) started in stand-up comedy at the legendary club The Improv, where he honed his talents until he was asked by Russell Simmons to host his groundbreaking comedy series “Def Comedy Jam” on HBO. From there, Lawrence became a household name after his hugely popular self-titled TV show, “Martin,” was an instant hit with TV viewers. He starred for five years as not only the title character, but other support characters, including the sassy Sheneneh and Mama Payne, who became comedy classics. Lawrence would later go on to star in comedy blockbusters like Bad Boys I and II, A Thin Line Between Love and Hate, which he also directed, and Big Momma’s House 1, 2, and 3, in which he once again proved his talent for creating and acting as multiple characters in one storyline.

VANESSA HUDGENS (Kelly) began her career in the world of musical theatre at the tender age of eight. Immediately realizing the incredible future that lay before her, she has tirelessly pursued her dream with much success. These early roles, in such productions as “Evita,” “Carousel,” “The Wizard of Oz,” “The King & I,” “The Music Man,” “Cinderella,” and “Damn Yankees,” gave Hudgens the opportunity to showcase her impressive singing and acting skills.

The recognition Hudgens received quickly brought her to the big screen. She made her feature film debut in Catherine Hardwicke’s controversial Thirteen starring Holly Hunter and Evan Rachel Wood. Soon thereafter, she co-starred in the action-adventure film Thunderbirds.
