Two film legends are teaming up for an iconic box office hit for the first time. Deadline reported that I Am Legend is set for a sequel starring Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan.
Not only that but Smith and Jordan are slated to co-produce the film with the co-writer of the original hit movie script, Akiva Goldsman, also returning to write for the sequel. No director has been named yet, though Francis Lawrence directed the first film.
I Am Legend was the latest adaptation of Richard Matheson’s 1954 novel and follows Robert Neville (Smith), one of the very few survivors of a massive, deadly pandemic that killed most people and turned many others into vampire-like mutant creatures.
According to People, the first I Am Legend movie garnered over $585 million worldwide.
