Will Smith and Michael Bay: No Collaboration on «Fast and Loose»

A Bad Boys reunion won't happen, as Will Smith and Michael Bay will not collaborate on the Netflix film «Fast and Loose». Initially, both had agreed to the project, but People magazine confirmed that Bay withdrew due to creative differences with Smith.

According to Deadline, Bay wanted to focus on the action elements, while Smith preferred a more comedic approach. «Fast and Loose» is about a mafia boss who loses his memory and discovers he was living a double life as a CIA agent. Filming is expected to begin in October.

Bay and Smith previously collaborated on «Bad Boys» (1995) and «Bad Boys II» (2003). Smith has mentioned that Bay helped him become a movie star.
