'Bad Boys 3' release date, news: Will Smith teases the movie is coming very soon

(YouTube/ Jimmy Kimmel Live)Will Smith teased on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" that the third film is coming very soon.

Utter chaos and mayhem are what can be expected when mixing action with comedy, and that is exactly what happened recently. Will Smith told Jimmy Kimmel during the Monday episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" that the third "Bad Boys" film is closer than what everyone else thinks.

Kimmel started asking Smith about the third film during his interview. "Martin Lawrence was here a few months ago and said you guys were going to start shooting 'Bad Boys III' in March," Kimmel asked while the audience roared in anticipation. To this question, Smith replied, smiling, "It is very, very, very close. It is very close." He also exclaimed how much he loved working with Lawrence on the third film. "I love that dude. That's among the best times I've ever had making movies. So I'm looking forward to it."

This interview happened after Lawrence made an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," where he was asked what people say to him the most in public. "The most? Is when we are going to do another 'Bad Boys,'" Lawrence said. "We are looking towards, maybe, you know, March. So hopefully, maybe, it may happen, and maybe we can get everybody together at the same time." Lawrence further explained that it was just a matter of getting the right script and doing it at the right time.

It sounds like Lawrence is the ringer to the whole "Bad Boys" commotion. He started the fire for the movie during his guesting at Conan O'Brien's late night show way back in August 2014, where he mentioned that he talked to Jerry Bruckheimer and said they were working on the script already. They even joked around, saying O'Brien could possibly play a crooked cop on crack.

The first "Bad Boys" film was shown in 1995, followed by "Bad Boys 2" in 2003. It will be very interesting to see what the Smith-Lawrence tandem has in store for endearing fans by the time the third film hits the theaters soon.

"Bad Boys 3" is also known as "Bad Boys for Life," and is expected to crash into theaters by Jan. 12, 2018.
