`Men in Black 4` in the works with new screenwriter

Los Angeles: Will Smith-starrer `Men in Black 3` is all set to get its sequel after studio bosses have given it a green signal.

Hoping that the fourth film will be a box-office success like its predecessor, the Sony Pictures has hired `Mortal Kombat` screenwriter Oren Uziel to provide the script for `Men in Black 4`, reported Ace Showbiz. The fourth installment of the `Men in Black` franchise is said to have Agent J and K embarking on a new challenging adventure. It is not clear whether original stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones will be back to reprise their respective roles. Uziel will start penning `MiB 4` as soon as he finishes rewriting another Sony project, `21 Jump Street 2`, which was originally written by Jonah Hill and Michael Bacall. PTI
