A fourth entry in the "Men in Black" franchise is officially in the works, and according to the producers, it will feature a Woman in Black -- and possibly original star Will Smith, too.
Married producing team Laurie MacDonald and Walter Parkes revealed in an interview with BBC Newsbeat that they were looking to add some estrogen to the hit sci-fi/comedy franchise.
"There will be a prominent woman in black in the fourth [film]," MacDonald told Newsbeat.
