If you're a fan of watching a drunk Will Smith flip over cars and mess with children, today's your lucky day. According to Peter Berg, there may (emphasis on may) be a sequel to the 2008 superhero movie, "Hancock." As Berg told Comicbookmovie.com, "We've been talking about the sequel between us, Will Smith, [producers] Michael Mann and Akiva Goldsman and myself."

However, don't get too excited "Hancock" enthusiasts: there are a few caveats.

"We're all interested, but we literally just have trouble getting into the same room at the same time," admits Berg. "We did have a series of meetings last year and started to hash out an idea for sequel -- and Will Smith actually had the idea -- so I think it will happen, it's just a question of timing."

So, "Hancock 2" maybe possibly could be a reality at some point in the future. Hope!

Berg is currently busy marketing his board game/action film hybrid, "Battleship," which has a May 18 release date. Next on Smith's docket is "Men In Black III," in theaters May 25.
