Yes, you guessed it, Jason Bateman will be returning for Hancock 2, joining Will Smith, Charlize Theron, and director Peter Berg in returning.
Bateman hasn't officially signed on yet, but seeing as he and Peter Berg say that he is returning it's pretty certain that we'll see him again. I don't think a sequel is needed. The first one was terrible, and a sequel would only make it worse.
So what do you think? Should he return? Should they make a Hancock 2? Could a sequel possibly make the first movie look better? Discuss it all and more below. I don't know if Bateman's actually needed. He kind of brought down the story a little bit and I found him kind of annoying. But he is the girl's husband, so it's better if he does return. Seeing as the story is about the superhero/god place that Smith and Theron came from, Bateman is kind of unnecessary.
