Will Smith has dished on a 'cool idea' for the sequel of Hancock.
During a live streaming with xQc, whose real name is Felix Lengyel, on his Twitch channel, he candidly shared an interesting idea about his movie.Seventeen years after the first movie released, Hancock 2 is in the works, he told the audience, “There’s a really cool Hancock 2 idea. We haven’t even talked about it.”
While revealing the name of the new cast member, he continued, “I’m going to give you one little piece. Zendaya [is] being approached for a role in Hancock 2.”
Previously, Peter Berg, the director of the action-comedy movie, revealed the reason for delaying the sequel in Comicbookmovie.com’s interview.
“We’ve been talking about the sequel between us, Will Smith, [producers] Michael Mann and Akiva goldman and myself,” he said.
“We’re all interested, but we literally just have trouble getting into the same room at the same time.”
“We did have a series of meetings last year and started to hash out an idea for sequel — and Will Smith actually had the idea — so I think it will happen, it’s just a question of timing,” he concluded.
For those unversed, Hancock made a profit of $629.4 million globally over a 150 million budget.
