There has been speculation for months that Sony was inching closer to announcing definite plans for Men in Black III. Today, Showbiz 411 confirms through director Barry Sonnenfeld that indeed both Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are returning for the third movie in the franchise.
Additionally, they also reveal (although it won't surprise anyone) that the third installment will be shot and released in 3D. There wasn't a definitive timeline for release as they are still waiting on the final script, but Sony has a big hole on its schedule for Memorial Day 2011 and everyone speculates that Men in Black III will fill it.
Other casting tidbits picked up in cyber space reportedly include Sacha Baron Cohen and Jemaine Clement being in the running for the same role. This rumor actually excites me quite a bit as I think either of these actors would fit nicely into this universe.
