Filming for the third installment in the Bad Boys franchise – Bad Boys For Life – was back in action on the bustling streets of Miami, Florida on Saturday.
And the film’s two stars, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, were seen getting ready to shoot a scene while driving a high-performance midnight blue Porsche that gets caught in the middle of a police chase.
Getting into mode to play Detective Lieutenant Mike Lowrey, stylists on the set dressed the 50-year old Ali star in white form-fitting pants and a red polo-style shirt.
They rounded out his ensemble with brown suede boots and kept his trademark goatee beard in tact.
Eventually Lawrence, who plays Detective Lieutenant Marcus Burnett, stepped out from a crowd of workers to greet Smith, dressed casually-cool in a dark button-down shirt with brown pants.
Once everything was nearly in place on the set, the two actors sprung into action and hopped into the car to shoot the scene.
As part of the day’s shooting, that blue Porsche was involved in a tricky stunt along the busy streets as extras and fans looked on in awe.
When the director yelled action, a stunt driver had to drive the back backwards and maneuver around a couple of quick turns while police in hot pursuit.
The logistics of the stunt also included a number of trucks and cars on the streets and people walking along the sidewalk.
Shooting for the third buddy-cop movie began in January, although Smith and Lawrence didn’t begin production for their scenes until February.
This go-around begins with Marcus (Lawrence) as a police inspector and Mike in a midlife crisis. They unite again when an Albanian mercenary, whose brother the pair killed, promises them an important bonus.
Also returning from the first two films is Joe Pantoliano’s Captain Howard.
The cast also includes newcomers Vanessa Hudgens, Alexander Ludwig, Charles Melton and popular musician DJ Khaled.
