Bad Boy Records CEO Diddy is 100 percent here for Hollywood's biggest bad boys. The hip-hop mogul has celebrated actors Will Smith and Martin Lawrence bringing in big bucks from their new Bad Boys For Life release.
Big Facts: This week, Puff Daddy hit up Instagram with a major salute to everyone’s favorite on-screen duo.
On A Related Note: A few days ago, Diddy’s longtime pal DJ Khaled also geeked out over the movie’s initial box office numbers.
Wait, There’s More: The must-see movie is already expected to dominate the weekend box office for a second straight week.
“Bad Boys for Life,” the third installment in the Will Smith and Martin Lawrence-led franchise, beat expectations over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, bringing in $62.5 million over the weekend and $73 million during its first four days in theaters. The film, which has enjoyed strong word of mouth, could add another $28 million to $30 million during its sophomore frame. (Variety)
Before You Go: There are already plans for a Bad Boys For Life follow-up flick.
The studio’s already developing Bad Boys 4, which sees Bad Boys for Life co-writer Chris Bremner return to pen the script. He’s already shown he knows how to deliver a fun Bad Boys installment and will be working in his wheelhouse. It also wouldn’t be a shock if Sony looked to position Bad Boys 4 in a similar window, perhaps finding a spot for it in the middle of January. Frankly, there isn’t much that comes out this time of year, so it makes more sense for Bad Boys to stay in that lane than take a chance against the bigger summer releases. (Screen Rant)
