On Friday it grossed £17million ($23.5 million) in North American and could triple that by the  end of the four-day Martin Luther King Jr. weekend.

The hotly anticipated film was due to be released in 2018, but was put back due to script changes.

The first Bad Boys movie came out way back in 1995, and that is when we were introduced to longtime friends Detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett.

The pair were tasked with protecting a witness to a murder, while also looking into the theft  of heroin from their Miami precinct evidence storage room.

Fast forward 25 years later, the Bad Boys Detectives Marcus and Mike are now dealing with problems such as potential career changes and midlife crises.

However, they cannot be down in the dumps for too long, as they re-unite one last time to bring down a mysterious assassin connected with Lowrey's past.

The detectives will join forces with the specialised team of AMMO, to try and take down the dangerous Armando Armas, the leader of a Miami drug cartel.

As well as Will and Martin, the film stars Vanessa Hudgens, who appears in the role of Kelley.
