The news that I Am Legend 2 is set decades after the original movie and retcons its ending is perfect for Will Smith's antihero, Robert Neville.
The news that I Am Legend 2 will retcon I Am Legend’s divisive ending is great for Will Smith’s return to the post-apocalyptic sci-fi franchise. I Am Legend’s ending is one of the more controversial book changes in the history of cinematic adaptations. Based on the Richard Matheson novel of the same name, 2007’s I Am Legend begins as a relatively faithful retelling of the book’s story. Both the novel and its movie adaptation focus on Dr.

In the original movie version of I Am Legend, Neville is a gruff survivalist who somewhat struggles with isolation, but is ultimately a morally uncomplicated hero.

Per Goldsman, the sequel’s action will start “a few decades later than the first,” confirming that it has been a long time since Neville was the Darkseeker-killing antihero of the original movie.
I Am Legend 2's Ending Retcon Is More Interesting For Smith's Neville In the I Am Legend movie, Smith’s Neville is little more than a standard-issue action hero. He has a few compelling moments that explore the character’s loneliness, such as the memorable sequence when he tries to hold a conversation with an inanimate mannequin.
