About the Men in Black saga
'Men in Black' adapted a Lowell Cunningham comic about a secret agency that polices the aliens living undercover on Earth. Barry Sonnenfeld directed 'Men in Black' (1997), produced by Steven Spielberg, with Will Smith as rookie Agent J and Tommy Lee Jones as veteran K, with their black suits, sunglasses and the neuralyzer that wipes memories.
It was one of the biggest hits of its year and won the Oscar for best make-up for Rick Baker's creatures; Will Smith's song and Danny Elfman's score did the rest. Sonnenfeld returned for 'Men in Black II' (2002) and 'Men in Black 3' (2012), in which Josh Brolin played the young Agent K.
The series was refreshed with F. Gary Gray's 'Men in Black: International' (2019), with Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson as a new pair of agents, this time at the London branch.
