There hasn't been any official confirmation yet on whether the next movie will be the final one. Both Smith and Lawrence have not hinted at retiring their roles as Mike and Marcus in their social media posts about the film. If Bad Boys 4 is meant to wrap up the series, it would probably have been announced by now, as movies often promote themselves as the "One Last Hurrah."
Whether or not we will see a Bad Boys 5 in the future will likely depend on how successful the next movie performs. The first film was a hit in 1995, but the sequel in 2003 didn't do as well, leading to a long hiatus for the franchise. However, the unexpected success of 2020's Bad Boys For Life, both critically and commercially (earning $426.5 million worldwide), has rejuvenated the series, despite the title hinting that it could be the final chapter.
Title | Rotten Tomatoes Critics' Score | Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score |
|---|---|---|
Bad Boys (1995) | 43% | 78% |
Bad Boys 2 (2003) | 23% | 78% |
Bad Boys For Life (2020) | 76% | 96% |
Smith and Lawrence, aged 55 and 58 respectively, could still reprise their roles as Mike and Marcus in another sequel if the next movie is successful. The ending of Bad Boys For Life sets the stage for an exciting continuation of the story, possibly wrapping up loose ends while introducing new plotlines. Whether Bad Boys 4 will be the final installment remains uncertain, but the film is definitely inching closer to its release in theaters.
