The Men in Black franchise has been a defining force in sci-fi action-comedy since its inception in 1997. Based on Lowell Cunningham’s Marvel-published comic, the movies follow a secret government agency that monitors extraterrestrial activity on Earth, ensuring that alien visitors remain hidden from the public eye. Featuring iconic performances by Will Smith as Agent J and Tommy Lee Jones as Agent K, the series has since offered unforgettable cinematic experience for the fans.
The original Men in Black film was an instant hit, grossing $589 million worldwide and winning an Academy Award. Its success led to two direct sequels, Men in Black II (2002) and Men in Black 3 (2012), which further explored the universe’s expanding lore. Despite Men in Black: International (2019) receiving mixed reviews, the franchise remains beloved, with its first three films widely regarded as genre-defining classics. With the franchise’s streaming availability shifting, fans will soon have a new platform to revisit these legendary films.
