Will We See Will Smith as Hancock Again?

Source:  JoBlo
Will Smith's summer blockbuster Hancock raked in the dough this summer taking in $228 million at the domestic box office, and Smith is talking sequel. JoBlo caught up with Smith while he was promoting his upcoming film Seven Pounds, and he said a sequel is "definitely" coming.

Smith told the site that he felt there were many characters still to be explored in this world that would be possibly explored in the sequel. It wasn't clear if director Peter Berg or co-stars Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman would return for the second film.

We'll surely keep you posted on any developments on this potential sequel as soon as we have more information.

this should be better then the first one

I think that movie wa just a mvoie for winning money with a bad script and a lot of publicity.

I don't mind if people liked the movie, but calling it "spectacular" just means you need to read a dictionary. Wait, aren't you the same guy who thought Twilight would be "masterful" but gave it 2.5 stars?...hmmm...Learn the definition of words before you blurt them out. I bet you haven't even read Watchmen. Ya wanna know why? Because anybody who reads Watchmen won't think Twilight is "irresistable"...there's another word you need to look up

Well I guess the first one was spectacular, I really liked it. but I dunno if the second would be necessary.
 
December 6th, 2008 8:33am
I liked Hancock. I wouldn't mind seeing another.

{Will Smith is great}.

The only good thing about "FootPenis" was the brilliant acting done by Jason Bateman. Will Smith was alright but the whole story line about he and Charlize Theron's character being gods or some shit that loose there powers when they are close was stupid. Make a sequal keep Bateman, loose Theron and give "FootPenis" a real bad ass foe to fight and you may have somrthing...

excellent news, it was quite a good film, i didnt like the corny stuff like the stupid french kid and the random lawyer (his friend). But there is serious potential in the next one for an awesome bad guy, more serious in the next one plz.

I just watched the first one tonight. It was actually a very enjoyable film. Nothing in the way of an epic, but a very human story about a non-human man. Jason Bateman is the real hero in that movie, but Will Smith creates a great character.

I knew it ...
 
December 5th, 2008 9:37pm
NAH, he's too busy sucking up to producers to play the next president.
 
December 5th, 2008 8:55pm
How did you not like Hancock but some of you like Dragonball (in general) or actual stupid shit like High School Musicial 3? Wtf? Can we say dumb comments?
 
December 5th, 2008 7:43pm
THIS MOVIE SUCKED IT WES ALL EMOTION AND NO SUPER VILLIANS WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER HANCOCK FILM
 
December 5th, 2008 6:57pm
hopefully not. the first one sucked ass an a sequel with that arrogant prick will suck even more.
 
December 5th, 2008 6:44pm
come back Will Smith!
 
December 5th, 2008 4:48pm
Stil haven't seen Hancock, might be fun.
 
December 5th, 2008 4:45pm
Hancock I thought was a pretty decent "superhero" movie. It was decently written and strayed from the norm of regular superhero movies. I think a sequel would not be as good as the first because the whole premise of the first one was that he was a bum alcoholic superhero who screwed up more than he did good and by the end of the film he rehabilitated himself and was a true superhero. What would the second one be about now that he is sober and actually doing some good?
 
December 5th, 2008 3:42pm
fuck'n eh!!!
 
December 5th, 2008 3:24pm
agreed, they need to make a 3 bad boys already
 
December 5th, 2008 3:24pm
I hope so. Unlike everyone else, I actually enjoyed "Hancock." It was pretty good, can't wait to hear more about this, but most of all, whether or not Will Smith shall be returning.
 
December 5th, 2008 3:17pm
I'd rather see Bad Boys 3,than Hancock 2
