I was worried that Belgian directing duo Adil and Bilall would try to engineer another Michael Bay baby. But they don’t. Mostly because they’re not embryologists at an IVF lab, but also because they know that for Bad Boys to endure, Bad Boys must evolve. And evolve it does. Bad Boys For Life is a mature and current take on what was an enjoyable but juvenile franchise for frat bros. The critical and financial success of Bad Boys For Life has made Adil and Bilall hot commodities among major Hollywood studios. Yes, including Marvel Studios. In an interview with ComicBook.com, the directors revealed that they’ve had meetings with the folks from Marvel Studios.
The Bad Boys For Life directors also mentioned that with the launch of Disney’s streaming service, Disney+, they might not necessarily even be making a feature film to be released on the big screen, but a series for the small screen. Do keep in mind that as the duo mentioned, nothing is set in stone just yet. Directors are constantly having conversations with major studios all the time. Bad Boys For Life is currently playing in Malaysian cinemas.
