Even though the anniversary of the iconic sitcom Martin is coming up on Aug. 27, Martin Lawrence said that there will not be a reunion to mark the occasion.
“A reunion? No, we’ve done everything that we could do,” Lawrence told Page Six on Tuesday. “There will be no reunion.”
Although Lawrence didn’t give all the reasons for why a reunion would not be happening, he did make sure to shoot down any possible rumors that it was due to bad blood with the cast.
“I talk to Tichina [Arnold], Carl [Anthony Payne II] and I ran into Tisha [Campbell-Martin],” he said, naming off his “Martin” co-stars. “Yeah, we’ve talked.”
He also shut down hopes of a Bad Boy sequel, noting that despite “Bad Boys for Life” and “Bad Boys 4” appearing on his IMDb page, there were no plans in place for more parts to the franchise.
“There can’t be a ‘Bad Boys 4’ if there hasn’t even been a ‘Bad Boys 3,’ ” he pointed out. “The whole ‘Bad Boys’ — there’s no ‘Bad Boys’ going on. There’s no ‘Bad Boys.’ ”
Of course, it probably doesn’t help the Bad Boys franchise that there have reportedly been script issues, or that they lost their director, Joe Carnahan.
