Bad Boys is returning this summer with another iconic movie. We spoke to Dennis McDonald, who plays Reggie. You might remember his unforgettable debut in Bad Boys 2, featuring the iconic scene where he gets grilled by Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s characters. Unbeknownst to many, the entire scene was ad-libbed, and the fear on Reggie’s face was genuine. We delved into this piece of cinematic history and more with Dennis McDonald.
We also spoke to Dennis about the upcoming Bad Boys film, Bad Boys: Ride or Die. This film marks the return of Reggie, and this time around, he’s not afraid to stand up to Mike and Marcus. Reggie even has his own fight scenes. It was a full-circle moment to discuss how Reggie’s character has progressed and what it has been like for Dennis to be part of the franchise throughout his life and what he would like to see for the future of Bad Boys.
The new Bad Boys film, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, continues the action-packed adventures of Miami detectives Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence).
