Are You Here For It? Will Smith & Michael B. Jordan Unite For ‘I Am Legend’ Sequel
#Socialites, get into this! For the first time ever Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan are set to star and produce alongside one another in the upcoming sequel to the 2007 post-apocalyptic film, ‘I Am Legend.’
Per Deadline, Warner Bros. is bringing back the franchise’s star and partnering him with ‘Black Panther‘ star MBJ — marking their first big movie together as actors and producers. While the original film ended with the death of Smith’s character — a scientist on the hunt for a cure of a plague that killed nearly all of humanity and turned its survivors into monsters — it’s unclear how he’ll return for the sequel.
