Bad Boys for Life was Adil El Arbi and Bilal Fallah to helm the third entry; and though it seemed like a third Bad Boys film would never see the light of day for quite some time, with the project remaining trapped in development hell, it finally found its footing. Alongside Smith and Lawrence, the cast includes Jacob Scipio, Vanessa Hudgens, Alexander Ludwig, Charles Melton, and Paola Nunez. Now, Lawrence has confirmed that production on Bad Boys for Life has finished.
Recently, Lawrence tweeted out a photo of himself and Smith announcing that Bad Boys for Life had wrapped filming. Production began this past January, and now with the project wrapping, Smith and Lawrence appear to be celebrating the film's completion as the photo shows the two co-stars resting underneath the shade of umbrellas. Check out Lawrence's tweet below:
After years of wondering and waiting, the third entry in the action-comedy series is finally going to become a reality. Despite the first film's mediocre critical reception, it helped launch Smith's career as a mainstream action star, with films like Men in Black, and Wild Wild West, while also landing him more prestigious roles that earned him two Oscar nominations for Best Actor in a Leading Role. After Bad Boys, Lawrence starred in a number of undercover cop comedy films, like Blue Streak and the Big Momma's House films.
As for Bad Boys for Life, Smith and Lawrence have been teasing fans ever since the film was announced and began production earlier this year. And now that production has wrapped, fans can expect some official marketing for the film to pick up steam, though it's anyone's guess when an official trailer will be released. For now, it's very likely that Smith and Lawrence will keep up with their social media updates for the film, as this isn't the first time they've reached out to fans via Twitter and Instagram.
