“I Am Legend” prequel is now officially a go
September 25th, 2008 • Filed Under
WoooHa, Inc. has been speculating that a prequel to the blockbuster Will Smith hit I Am Legend was being discussed since July and now it’s official. According to the Variety, Warner Bros has officially greenlit a prequel and Will Smith has signed on to reprise his role as Robert Neville. Even the director from the first movie is back as well.
As we predicted, the prequel will follow Neville in the last days before and after the man-made virus kills and mutates New York City. It will add depth and storyline to the series of flashbacks from the first film including how the virus mutated from cancer curing to death causing. A sequel was considered, but due to the flashback elements of the first film, a prequel was a natural fit.
