Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan are teaming up for I Am Legend 2 [1]

['Devin Nealy']

Date: 2023-02-16

The 2020s have not been kind to Will Smith. The decade started with Will's marriage being a source of public intrigue when his wife's affair hit the news. In a matter of weeks, Smith became a punchline across Black Twitter, causing images of his tear-stained face to usurp the ubiquitous "Micahel Jordan crying" meme.

As the dust began to settle, Smith seemed primed to have the last laugh after securing the lead role in King Richard, which was practically designed to garner an Oscar. However, we all know what happened next. Now, Smith has been angling for a public comeback with the ferocity of Apollo Creed in Rocky 2. What's his next attempt to win back the favor of his formerly adoring public?

According to IGN, Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan are set to create a sequel to I Am Legend. The movie will take place decades after the original and aim to veer closer to the source material than its predecessor.
