Michael B. Jordan has a promising update on I Am Legend 2 – and says he can’t wait to “get in front of the camera” with co-star Will Smith.
I Am Legend follows Robert Neville (Smith), a US Army virologist, living a solitary life in New York City after a virus wipes out most of humanity and turns the rest into vampiric mutants. Neville is immune to the virus, though, and is working on a cure. The original cut of the movie (spoiler) ends with Neville’s death, but the sequel will take the alternate ending of the DVD – and the novel on which the film is based – in which he lived, as canon.
As for Jordan, his next project is a horror movie fromCreedandBlack Pantherdirector Ryan Coogler. The cast of the movie, which is currently untitled, also includes Delroy Lindo, Jack O’Connell, and Hailee Steinfeld.
