Despite mediocre reviews, HANCOCK did pretty well at the box office, but I still never thought we'd really see any further adventures from Will Smith's superhero in the future. Apparently, I was wrong. We just got done talking to Will Smith, who's promoting SEVEN POUNDS, and he told us that we'll "definitely" be seeing a sequel.
When we asked Will if he'd ever be up for playing another superhero he replied that there were a lot of unexplored characters in the HANCOCK universe that would be ripe for a sequel and confirmed that we'll definitely see the rumored HANCOCK 2 in a few years. So who do you think these "unexplored characters could be?". While HANCOCK wound up disappointing do you think a sequel could vastly improve on the original?
We'll have much more from Will Smith (and his SEVEN POUNDS co-star Rosario Dawson) next week on JoBlo.com!
Hancock was pretty cool, but there's definitely room for improvement, so a sequel is fine by me.
