After several years in development, filming on Bad Boys for Life is set to get underway later this month, and thanks to Production Weekly we’ve got a new synopsis for the film which offers up some plot details for the third outing for Will Smith’s Mike Lowrey and Martin Lawrence’s Marcus Burnett.
According to the site, “the new installment centers on the Miami PD and its elite AMMO team’s attempt to take down Armando Armas (Jacob Scipio), head of a drug cartel. Armando is a cold-blooded killer with a vicious, taunting nature. He is committed to the work of the cartel and is dispatched by his mother to kill Mike (Will Smith).”
