Director F. Gary Gray's upcoming reboot of MEN IN BLACK, MEN IN BLACK INTERNATIONAL starring Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson will be upon us later this year. And to get you guys hyped for the release, today we have a few new international posters for the film. They're pretty cool as they feature some badass gear both new and old (and updated) and best of all they feature the return of Frank the Pug!
Check them out below!
Truth be told, I'm not sold on this upcoming reboot. Sure the general story kicks ass (as evident by the original Barry Sonnenfeld film starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones) but I'm not sure this new version is for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of both Hemsworth and Thompson as THOR: RAGNAROK was badass for a Marvel movie. It's just that this new movie looks too… hip? Is that the right word? I think so.
Anyhow, I'm more than willing to give a chance past the first trailer (see it again for yourself below). The film doesn't yet have an official synopsis, but we have heard that the story deals with
M (Tessa Thompson) trying to prove herself by joining the London MIB and being paired with the former ace Agent H (Chris Hemsworth). The pair becomes involved in a murder mystery that has them traveling the globe.
Directed by F. Gary Gray from a screenplay by Art Marcum and Matt Holloway, stars Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson as Agents H and M, respectively, with Liam Neeson as their boss and Emma Thompson reprising her MEN IN BLACK III role of Agent O. Also in the cast, in unspecified roles, are Rebecca Ferguson, Kumail Nanjiani, Rafe Spall, and twin dancers Laurent and Larry Nicolas Bourgeois. Produced by Walter F. Parkes and Laurie MacDonald, with Steven Spielberg executive producing, MEN IN BLACK INTERNATIONAL is scheduled to be released on June 14, 2019.
