Fans waiting for I Am Legend 2 are curious about whether the new trailer for the film that hit the web is fake or real and also want to know whether or not Will Smith is coming back to the film franchise. Here is all you need to know.
Is the I Am Legend 2 trailer real?
No, the I Am Legend 2 trailer is not real.
Unfortunately, the I Am Legend 2 trailer that just hit the web is not real and is fake. The giveaway is a brief voiceover part, which is from a crucial scene in Captain America: Civil War, where Thunderbolt Ross tells the Avengers about the destruction they indirectly caused. Another giveaway is the clips used in the film which are from the original I Am Legend film.
This fake trailer was made and uploaded on YouTube by Teaser PRO, a community of people who develop fan or concept trailers to show what unreleased or non-existent films could look like.
Is Will Smith coming back in I Am Legend 2?
Yes, Will Smith is coming back in I Am Legend 2, which will follow on from the alternate ending to I Am Legend shown in the film’s DVD release, in which his character, Dr. Robert Neville, survives. As fans of the first film know, Neville dies at the end of the theatrical version of the film.
Not only is Smith coming back to reprise his role of Neville in I Am Legend 2, but he will also serve as a producer on the film. He will be joined by Michael B. Jordan, who will serve as the co-lead of the film and also produce it alongside Smith. The film will be written and produced by Akiva Goldsman, who previously produced and wrote the first film.
