Rebecca Rubin Senior Film and Media Reporter Turns out, Bad Boys are good for ticket sales. Sony’s “Bad Boys: Ride or Die,” the fourth entry in the Will Smith and Martin Lawrence-led buddy cop series, started strong with $56 million from 3,885 theaters in its domestic debut.
The film also opened at the international box office with $48.6 million, bringing its worldwide tally to $104.6 million. The sequel to 1995’s “Bad Boys,” 2003’s “Bad Boys II” and 2020’s “Bad Boys for Life” is notable as Smith’s first major film to grace the big screen since he assaulted Chris Rock on stage at the 2022 Oscars.
