The 23 Jump Street Men in Black Crossover is Happening
 

One of the more unusual movie ideas that was leaked during the 2014 terrorist hack on Sony Pictures was for a 23 Jump Street Men in Black crossover movie. Today, Variety has an update on the project, claiming that the feature film is moving forward with James Bobin (Flight of the Conchords, The Muppets) in talks to direct.

“Nothing’s changed,” Phil Lord told MTV shortly after the story broke. “It’s still a crazy idea, and we only do things that seem like they’re going to be terrible… We’re really focusing on what’s a great story for Schmidt and Jenko and how to tell the next chapter in their lives. And perhaps use creatures from another world at the same time!”

“[I]t’s definitely a really interesting concept that makes you think,” Chris Miller told us last year. “Talking about it, developing it with Jonah [Hill] and Channing [Tatum] and Rodney [Rothman] and the studio, we can’t just do the, ‘Hey, it’s the same thing again’ schtick because we did that already.”

Interestingly enough, Miller also revealed that he considers the entire roster of sequels featured in the 22 Jump Street end credits part of the official franchise continuity.

“Those are canon, all 22 sequels,” he said. “If we’re going to do something, it’s got to be different but still have that same very specific Jump Street flavor to it.”

Yessssssssss. I love the Jump Street movies and this sounds great.

I think it sounds like a lot of fun.
Would be even better if Will Smith and T.L.Jones were involved...

I can just hear Ice Cubed going "You sons of b*tches are going to fight aliens!"

I have to see this.

I like Jump Street.

I like Men in Black.


Together though, I don't know.

Good lord, what a cash grab.

MIB 3 was better than it had any right to be. My head-canon stops there.

Is Sony that desperate to have a huge, sprawling franchise like Marvel Studios? Maybe they'll have another crossover with the new Ghostbusters.

I hope Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill trip on space drugs.

Men in Black vs Ghostbusters vs 22 Jump Street coming 2025 :lol:

This is one of those ideas so random that I can't wait to see it play out :D

I don't know what to think about this. Is this going to work?

The FotC director? Sign me up.

Don't worry. If it doesn't, they can just reboot it again and again until they make the amount of money they are looking for.

I think what I'm most looking forward to seeing, in the event that its successful, all the wacky mashups Hollywood will pair up in their efforts to establish a "cinematic universe" :lol:

The movie has a title: "MIB 23"

"At least one report has said that Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are definitely not coming back"

So why is this even a thing?

I'm just glad Agents J and K will have no part in this...

Here's the logo for it.

Although, J and K shouldn't be needed to make a MiB movie. I'm still a bit disappointed, as long as they don't recast the characters and make new agents, maybe Agent Ecks?
