Following Aladdin, Will Smith Has Another Movie Musical Coming Together

The one behind-the-scenes name, or names, that are conspicuous by their absence is the name of anybody handling songwriting. As such, it’s possible that the plan here is to make Summertime a “Jukebox musical,” where the songs used are all previously existing hits. We could be getting a “greatest hits” of hip-hop as a musical. Alternatively, it could be that original music will be written for Summertime, but who will write it hasn’t been decided, or announced, quite yet.
