Right now, let’s talk the post-apocalyptic movie that is ‘Hancock’ and this really “cool” idea that Will Smith has to bring it back on our screens.

Will Smith Spills ‘Hancock’ Details

Will Smith has had a fantastic run when it comes to playing lead characters in sci-fi movies. Just to prove it I’m going to name a few off the top of my head: ‘I, Robot,’ ‘Gemini Project,’ ‘Men in Black,’ ‘After Earth’ with son Jaden Smith, ‘Suicide Squad,’ and who could forget ‘Independence Day?’

During his appearance on xQc’s live stream on Twitch, a fan asked the star whether it’s possible that ‘Hancock’ would finally be getting a sequel.

In the 2008 superhero movie, Smith stars as an alcoholic superhero on a mission to revamp his public image and help save the city of Los Angeles.

In response to the question about a sequel, Smith joked, “They be leaking all my information.”

He then went on to tease, shock and thrill fans with the news, “There’s a really cool, really cool Hancock 2 idea. We haven’t even talked about it, so I’m going to give you on little piece — Zendaya will be being approached for Hancock 2, for a role in Hancock 2.” Do we clap in this joint?

‘Hancock’ Director Peter Berg Reveals Plans To Make A Sequel

Smith is not the only person who has publicly shared interest in bringing back ‘Hancock.’ In 2012, director Berg confirmed that he is working with interested parties to make a sequel to the beloved superhero movie.

“We’ve been talking about the sequel between us, Will Smith, [producers] Michael Mann and Akiva Goldman and myself. 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 said at the time.

In a separate interview, Charlize Theron, who played the wife of a PR executive in the movie, revealed that she would return “in a heartbeat” if a sequel ever slips through to production.
“You know, for a while we [talked about a sequel],” Theron told ComicBook.com. “I think closer to when the movie came out, but not in recent years, no. We’ll be superheroes with our walkers, you know. And I’ll still go.”
