It seems that Agents J and K will be returning in those snazzy black suits once again. Showbiz 411 recently spoke with director Barry Sonnenfeld who revealed that both Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones will return for Men in Black 3D.

It was said that Sony is eager to get the film rolling, hoping to fill the void left by Spider-Man 4 being replaced by Untitled Spider-Man Reboot. It was believed that the studio is aiming for a Memorial Day 2011 release for Men in Black 3D.

We reported back in October that Etan Cohen (Tropic Thunder) was writing the script for the film and it seems that a draft could be expected in the near future. We also reported last month that actors such as Josh Brolin, Sacha Baron Cohen and Jemaine Clement were up for roles in the sequel as well, but we don't have any further, official casting information at this time.

Men in Black 3 was released May 25th, 2012 and stars Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement, Emma Thompson, Michael Stuhlbarg, Mike Colter, Nicole Scherzinger. The film is directed by Barry Sonnenfeld.

    MIB had a family friendly level humor without being pathetic. Variety of colorful characters. Don't mind seeing another one, especially with Sacha Baron on the team :)

    The first one was cool, the second one was a sh*tty-a$$ train wreck. Hopefully, the third one, in 3D, will pick the franchise back up and pull it out of the corner where dead movies are dumped.

    "Men in Black 3D." What a clever title. It's so ingenious how they incorporated 3D into the title, being the third film in the series and all. I am impressed.

    WTF... ?!?!?!

    3D gives me a HEADACHE.

    What's more, it costs 40%-60% more to see a 3D film.

    Hollywood just wanting to increase their take on the BO...when it's nothing more than a damn scam.

    I'm boycotting all 3D films...I'll watch the 2D version on disc.

    Screw Hollywood AND 3D

    usually not good when the studio, director and cast sign on WITHOUT a finished script. means they are pushing a product/franchise and not a solid story.
