It looks like Will Smith will face the apocalypse for a second time, with the news that Warner Bros is developing an I Am Legend prequel.
Smith will reprise his role as scientist Robert Neville, who roamed the streets of New York as the perceived last man on earth in the original.
According to Variety, the prequel will chronicle humanity's final days before the deadly virus hit.
Francis Lawrence will return to direct, while DB Weiss, who is currently adapting Neil Strauss's The Game for the big screen, will write the script.
