“I Am Legend 2” is on its way! This sequel to the 2007 post-apocalyptic thriller brings back Will Smith and introduces Michael B. Jordan to the story. Here’s what we know so far.
“I Am Legend 2,” scheduled for release in 2025, offers a fresh take on the post-apocalyptic genre. The film reunites Will Smith with director Francis Lawrence, continuing the story of military scientist Robert Neville in a virus-ravaged New York City.
This sequel promises to build on the themes of the original film while introducing new narrative elements. Michael B. Jordan joins the cast, adding significant star power to the project.
His involvement suggests a potential passing of the torch or a new perspective on the world established in the first movie.
Fans of the original can look forward to a blend of familiar elements and innovative storytelling as the franchise evolves. Although details are still limited, the sequel’s development has generated considerable excitement among movie enthusiasts.
The return to Richard Matheson’s source material, together with modern filmmaking techniques, sets the stage for an exciting cinematic experience.
The original “I Am Legend” had two endings. The theatrical ending showed Robert Neville sacrificing himself to save two other survivors. The alternate ending, more aligned with the book, showed Neville realizing the creatures he hunted were sentient. He leaves New York with the other survivors. “I Am Legend 2” will follow the events of the alternate ending.
The Cast
Will Smith returns as Robert Neville. Michael B. Jordan joins the cast in an undisclosed role.
