Bad Boys 4 continues rounding out its cast with a fan-favorite Better Call Saul star. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are returning as the mismatched detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett in a currently untitled fourth Bad Boys film, the plot of which is still under wraps. Bad Boys for Life‘s Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah return as directors on Bad Boys 4, which started filming in early April with a recent set video showing Smith and Lawrence filming a dramatic scene on a rooftop.
Now, as the sequel continues filming in Atlanta, the Bad Boys 4 cast has added Rhea Seehorn, according to Deadline. Seehorn, who earned two Emmy nominations for her multifaceted performance as Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul, has joined Bad Boys 4 in a mystery role. There are currently no details on the character Seehorn will be playing.
Every Actor Cast In Bad Boys 4 So Far
Alongside Smith and Lawrence, Bad Boys 4 features the return of Paola Núñez as Captain Rita Secada, Vanessa Hudgens as Kelly, and Alexander Ludwig as Dorn. All three characters are members of the Advanced Miami Metro Operations, or AMMO for short. Also returning is John Salley, who played Fletcher in the original Bad Boys, Bad Boys II, and spinoff TV series LA’s Finest. Tasha Smith takes over the role of Theresa, Marcus’s wife, from Theresa Randle, who played the character in the first three movies.
Franchise newcomers joining the Bad Boys 4 cast include Euphoria‘s Eric Dane as the villain and Fantastic Four‘s Ioan Gruffudd in an undisclosed role. Seehorn is the latest star to join the sequel in a mystery role. Given her nuanced and compelling performance in Better Call Saul, her Bad Boys 4 character will hopefully continue to showcase different dimensions of her acting ability. If one thing is for certain, the $840 million-grossing franchise is Seehorn’s biggest role yet post-Better Call Saul.
