Timed with “Hancock” theatrical release, starring Will Smith on July 2nd! Agent Kay (Tommy Lee Jones, No Country for Old Me) and Agent Jay (Will Smith, The Pursuit of Happyness, Hancock) are members of a top-secret but unofficial government agency called Division 6. Better known as the “Men in Black,” these agents carry out a very important mission: to monitor and police alien activity on earth. Armed with space-age technology and sharp black suits, these agents must stop a deadly plot by an alien bug-like terrorist (Vincent D’Onofrio, Full Metal Jacket, Law and Order: Criminal Intent), who has arrived on Earth on a mission to start intergalactic war by assassinating two ambassadors from opposing galaxies who are currently in New York. To prevent disaster and the destruction of the Earth, Kay and Jay, with the help of coroner Dr Laurel Weaver (Linda Fiorentino, Dogma), will track down the terrorist before he has the chance to bring his plan into action.
