Bad Boys: Ride or Die star Martin Lawrence comments on the possibility of a Bad Boys 5 and beyond. After first playing the character of Marcus Burnett back in 1995, Lawrence most recently returned as the cop in 2020’s Bad Boys For Life. Now, Lawrence and costar Will Smith, who plays Mike Lowrey, are set to appear in an upcoming fourth film from returning directors Adil el Arbi and Bilall Fallah. There’s been no confirmation, however, whether the new movie will be the last one.

Ahead of the Bad Boys: Ride or Die release date, Lawrence addresses his franchise future during a recent interview with Empire Magazine. While it doesn’t sound like there are any firm plans in place for a Bad Boys 5 just yet, the actor makes clear that he’s interested as long as Smith is. Check out his comment and a new image from Bad Boys: Ride or Die below:

“I’m going to carry on as long as my brother carries on. It’ll be very hard to get rid of me.”

More to come…
