Martin Lawrence is developing the sequel to the action comedy BLUE STREAK with Sony Pictures

After the successful run with Bad Boys: Ride or DieSony Pictures is getting back into business Martin Lorenzo to develop a sequel to the 1999 action comedy Blue Streak.

The project’s script is currently being written by Cole Masika, and Deadline reports that the film is in early development with no other talent involved.

In the original film, Lawrence played Miles Logan, a jewel thief who, after a robbery gone wrong, hides a stolen diamond in the ventilation shaft of a building under construction.

Two years later, having been released from prison, Miles discovers that the building is now a police station. Determined to recover the diamond, he goes undercover as a detective, posing as an LAPD officer.

As he takes on the role, his intelligence and quick thinking inadvertently lead him to become a celebrity cop, complicating his plans to recover the gem.

I remember the first movie being fun, but it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it and I’ve only seen it once. Does it need a sequel after all these years? No. But maybe something funny will come of it.

Lawrence is also producing the film Robert Lawrence, Rae Proctor AND Stacy Lyles as well as Toby Jaffe.

Is anyone excited to hear that we’re getting a Blue Stripe followed!?
