Fans have been waiting for the third installment of Bad Boys and it’s official on its way.

Bad Boys for Life is due out January 12, 2018 and will star both Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, Sony has announced.

According to Variety, there will also be a fourth movie, simply titled Bad Boys 4, and it is scheduled for a May 24, 2019 drop after initially being set for a Memorial Day release that year.

The Philly actor and emcee had talked about the possibility of Bad Boys for Life, the follow-up to 2003’s Bad Boys II, earlier this year when he said that he and Lawrence had met for the first time in a while and it was just like the old days.

“I hadn’t seen him for about two years,” Smith said. “And we just looked at each other. And we hugged. And in that moment, we both knew we were making another Bad Boys. So, we’re definitely doing another one.”
