How? The movie ends with them old as hell struggling at a reunion picnic. I'm guessing they are going to have a group or something? It still doesn't work because how can you have Five Heartbeats set in modern time?
Who said it would be set in modern time? & who knows where they're gonna take the movie.... they might mentor some young nikkas :scusthov:

It still wouldn't make sense because it tells the story up until they broke up at the awards show.

That's the wonder of Hollywood.. It doesn't need to make sense

It just needs to be entertaining & respect the original.. If it does that I'm in :manny:

That's exactly what we said about the best man sequel when it was announced. I'm reserving judgment till the trailer drops.

Ehh hes gotta be trolling unless they really would run with a reunion tour storyline. Age isnt a issue here all the actors are still young enough to work. The original just told a complete story, Ill see it though that and OG Sparkle are prob my fav movies to deal with music of all time
