Will Smith and Michael B Jordan have announced the sequel to the 2007 film ‘I Am Legend’ and the news has fans quite excited.
According to Deadline, the planned sequel of the film is taking inspiration from the famous HBO series ‘The Last of Us’.
Akiva Goldsman told Deadline on Wednesday
The sequel will start “a few decades later than the first,” though he didn’t elaborate on Jordan’s role in the story. “I’m obsessed with The Last of Us, where we see the world post-apocalypse,” Goldsman said. But even after a gap of 20-, 30 years.”

Goldsman told Deadline
“You look at how the earth reclaims the world, and there is something beautiful in the question, what happens as soon as a man moves away from being the primary tenant? It will be particularly visible in New York.”Goldsman told Deadline, “We go back to the original Matheson book, and the alternate ending as opposed to the one released in the original film.”
The plot of ‘M Legend’ revolves around a disease
“What Matheson was talking about was that man’s time as the dominant species on the planet had come to an end. That’s a really interesting thing that we’re going to explore.”
“There would be a little more fidelity to the original text,” he said.
The plot of ‘I Am Legend’ revolves around a disease that spreads among the human race, turning them into zombie-like entities that hide from sunlight. Neville (Smith) was the lone survivor living in New York City, trying to find a cure.
