After kicking ass at the box office this weekend with his latest film I Am Legend, it looks like Will Smith will kick ass again this coming summer.
The folks over at Joblo alerted us that they've posted the teaser trailer for Peter Berg’s superhero drama "Hancock" starring Will Smith Charlize Theron. and Jason Bateman. The film was formely entitled Tonight, He Comes, which we did a script review a while back HERE.
Smith plays a down-and-out superhero who has a bad image with the public because he causes a lot of collateral damage while he solves crime, and he's an alcoholic. Bateman plays a corporate public relations consultant, who after being rescued by Smith tries to repay him by revamping his image. But while Bateman is trying to repair Smith’s reputation the superhero is secretly romancing Bateman’s alluring wife played by Theron.
Basically a superhero with issues.

Hancock is due to hit theaters on July 4th 2008. Another Will Smith Independence Day tradition.
