When Men in Black: International was announced in February 2018, Hollywood looked to Sony with bated breath. For a long time, the studio had thought about how to do it hit sci-fi series that was once led by Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. Now a new generation has arrived.

Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson have been cast in the lead roles, having recently proven themselves in Thor 3: Day of Decision perfect canvas pair hand over. Added to this was director F. Gary Gray fresh off Fast & Furious 8, which had grossed over $1.2 billion.

    • Despite Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson: Men in Black: International became a sci-fi flop

    The hype surrounding a new Men in Black film was certainly there. Ultimately, however, the finished result in the cinema could hardly make anyone happy. Although the franchise revival with some amusing comedy moments and playful sci-fi ideas, it went down in the history books as a flop.

    The Hollywood Reporter spoke to several insiders who were familiar with the production after its theatrical release. In a background report, the creative differences behind the scenes of Men in Black: International broken down. We have summarized the most important points.

  • Director F Gary Gray pursued a different vision than producer Walter Parkes, who was already involved in the first three films. Gray has wanted to leave the project on several occasions. Parkes allegedly shot some scenes himself.
  • The script was rewritten again and again. The first version is said to have been much cheekier and closer to the spirit of the times. Originally, the first script by Art Marcum and Matt Holloway received a lot of praise.
  • Storylines that have been shortenedconcern, among other things, the immigration issue and a music group à la The Beatles, whose individual members would have turned into a big villain.
  • chaos and uncertainty on the set because new script pages arrived every day, which have diluted the core of the film. Hemsworth and Thompson were forced to hire their own dialogue writers.
  • The studio sat out the situation, leading to the frustration of many involved. The Hollywood Reporter quotes his source as saying: “The studio was [während der Produktion] like an absent landlord.”

    • If you look at the finished film, many of the problems described can be understood. While some things work, the bottom line is that Men in Black: International is a film that’s more about itself like a patchwork quilt feels like a well-rounded sci-fi comedy and a determined franchise reboot.
