The talent behind the Men In Black soft-reboot/spinoff is shaping up quite nicely.  Fresh off their reconstruction of the Thor franchise in Thor: Ragnarok, Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson are set to team up again in director F. Gary Gray's Men In Black reboot.

Liam Neeson is attached to play the head of the M.I.B.'s UK division and a new report from The Hashtag Show taps Kumail Nanjiani as in final talks to portray a wisecracking alien and third-partner of Hemsworth and Thompson in the film. 

The film is reportedly set to take place in the United Kingdom, to allow room for Will Smith to return to the franchise if he chooses.
