Warner Bros is developing an "I Am Legend" sequel with Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan ("Black Panther", "Creed"). Both are set to star and produce. The sequel's script is penned by Akiva Goldsman, who also adapted Richard Matheson's 1954 novel of the same name for the 2007 film. The idea for this project originated as far back as 2012.
Since the film is still in development there are no details about the plot. No director is attached as of yet. The original film was directed by Francis Lawrence ("Constantine", "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire") and it starred Smith as the sole survivor of a plague that wiped out most of humanity and transformed the rest into monsters. The post-apocalyptic thriller grossed over $585 million worldwide.
Smith recently finished work on the thriller "Emancipation" directed by Antoine Fuqua ("Training Day"), which has been sold to Apple TV+ for $120 million.
Jordan will make his feature directorial debut with the sequel "Creed III", in which he also stars. The film will open in theaters on November 23rd.
