Will Smith returns to action alongside Martin Lawrence in Sony’s latest installment of the “Bad Boys” franchise, as unveiled in the debut trailer for “Bad Boys: Ride or Die.” The dynamic duo is back, showcasing their signature blend of humor and high-stakes action in the upcoming June 7 release.

Set four years after the events of “Bad Boys 3,” known informally as “Bad Boys 4,” Smith’s character, Mike Lowrey, maintains his status as a formidable force. Meanwhile, Lawrence’s Marcus Burnett grapples with personal issues, including a troublesome stomach. As their former captain, Joe Pantoliano’s Conrad Howard, faces accusations of crimes he didn’t commit, he turns to the Bad Boys for help, setting the stage for another adrenaline-fueled adventure.

Directed by Adil & Bilall and scripted by Chris Bremner, “Bad Boys: Ride or Die” promises to deliver the same pulse-pounding action and comedic banter that fans have come to love. The film is backed by a stellar production team, including Smith, Jerry Bruckheimer, Chad Oman, and Doug Belgrad.

Since its debut in 1995, “Bad Boys” has captivated audiences worldwide, spawning two successful sequels.
