Listen: Will Smith (Summertime) Remix

The "Men in Black 3" star has recorded a remix to "Summertime," TMZ reports. You can listen to a preview of the track below, and it will be available for download June 11.

"Summertime" was originally released on 1991's Homebase, DJ Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince's fourth studio album. The song won the Grammy for Best Rap Single and shot up the Billboard charts (it peaked at No. 4). Smith's remix is extremely pared-down, with a slowly building beat which -- according to the rapper's ad-libs -- is produced by Jeff and Mick Boogie.

Two new clips were released by Columbia Pictures from director Barry Sonnefeld’s “Men in Black III.”

Both teasers give the audience a sneak peek of the adventurous action throughout the flick, while the

characters take a spin on the single-wheel vehicles as well as a conversation between the stars of the film, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones.

The film opens in theatres on May 25 and also features Josh Brolin giving an incredible impression of a young Jones.

It takes Agent J (Smith) on a journey back in time to save the life of his partner of 15 years, and in his journey many twists and turns are revealed making this film an exciting and wild ride. The movie also stars Jermaine Clement, Alice Eve, and Emma Thompson.

Will-Jada-Pinkett-Jaden-and-Willow-Smith-to-do-movie-together

It has been reported that Will Smith, his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith and their two children Jaden Smith and Willow Smith, are set to team up and do a movie together. It will be the first time that the whole family has appeared on the big screen together.

It is not yet clear whether they will be playing an actual family or if they will just be in the movie but not related. Will Smith has pushed hard with the idea for the movie and hopes to have it made as soon as possible, as he currently has a very busy work schedule.

Will Smith has been linked to sequels to almost every movie that he has ever done, while Jaden Smith is set to be involved in Karate Kid 2. The there is Willow Smith, who seems more comfortable in the music scene rather than acting.

However, once all of their schedules have a short amount of free time, they are dead set on going off and making this movie. The script for the film is complete but is undergoing a few small revisions but production on the project is expected to get underway as soon as possible.

Will Smith created Men In Black 3 concept

Men In Black 3 director Barry Sonnefeld has revealed how the star of the Men In Black movies, Will Smith was the person who came up with the concept for the third instalment of the movie franchise. However, Barry admitted that it took so long to get the movie to the filming stage, as the idea of time travel was not as easy as they had anticipated.

Sonnefeld explained, "Will calls me Baz. When we were shooting Men In Black 2, one night he said 'Hey Baz, I think I have an idea for number three'. The basic idea was that Will's character, Agent J, would have to go back into the past to save his partner. It allowed the movie to take place in another era, and us to learn more about Tommy Lee Jones' character.”

He added, “But it turned out to be a very long process of development, mainly because of the knotting issues of time travel, the time travel thing was really hard." Barry then revealed how they began shooting Men In Black 3 before the official script for the movie had even been completed, making things very difficult.

Sonnefeld continued, "We knew starting the movie that we didn't have a finished second or third act. Was it responsible? The answer is, if the movie does as well as I think it will, it was genius. If it's a total failure, then it was a really stupid idea." You can catch Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin in Men In Black 3, which is released on March 25.
