Baywatch is getting the red band trailer it deserves. The Seth Gordon-directed reboot follows in the footsteps of 21 Jump Street as it revives a classic TV show and brings it to new levels of vulgarity and raunchiness. Hardly surprising given that star Dwayne Johnson has described the movie as “far dirtier” than the original TV show.
Recently, Sony announced that the studio was crossing over two of their more popular franchises, 21 Jump Street (which stars Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill) and Men In Black (starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones). If that sounds like your dream come true, those dreams might be shattered, because Hill doesn't necessarily think it will happen. “I had the idea,” Hill tells Postmedia Network. “But I doubt that movie will get made.” “It’s too complicated,” Hill concedes. “They’re trying to make all the deals, but it’s kind of impossible with all the Men in Black stuff. The Jump Street films were so fun to make and the whole joke of them was they were making fun of remakes and sequels and reboots and then now it’s become a giant sequel, reboot. It’s almost become what we were making fun of and it’s hard to maintain that joke when it’s so high stakes.”
Sony is reportedly planning to revive Men in Black as a new film trilogy without Will Smith's involvement. Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald, who produced the original trilogy, told The Hollywood Reporter talks of a revival are "very active" at Sony. However, according to Parkes, Smith, who played Agent J in all three Men in Black films, "most likely" won't be involved with the revival. MacDonald added that the sci-fi-comedy franchise will be "reinvented as a trilogy.
Sony Pictures is looking to expand their Jump Street franchise with a female-led spinoff movie and Men in Black crossover movie. The Men in Black crossover, which plans to send Jonah Hill and Channing Tatumâs characters into the Men in Black universe, will likely skewer the crossover fever that has taken hold of popular culture un the same way that 21 Jump Street , itself a reboot, poked fun at reboot movie, and sequel 22 Jump Street took aim at sequels. You won't need sunglasses for this to get out of your memory once it passes by.
After putting into motion a female-centric Ghostbusters, Sony Pictures is looking at gender-bending another one of its budding franchises, 21 Jump Street. Lucia Aniello and Paul W. Downs, writers who are working on Comedy Central’s buzzy Broad City, have been hired to write a female-driven Jump Street spinoff. The move is aimed to broaden the franchise base for the franchise-light studio that is seeking ways to create its own cinematic universes. The two Jump Street movies have grossed over $530 million for Sony.
