Will Smith's character Mike Lowrey convinces his partner Martin Lawrence's Marcus Burnett to not retire in the "Bad Boys for Life" trailer, which dropped Wednesday.

Smith and Lawrence return for a third ride in the franchise following "Bad Boys" in 1995, and "Bad Boys II" in 2003.

In the clip, Lowery tells Burnett, "On these streets I never trusted anybody but you. I'm asking you man. Bad Boys … One last time."

Lowrey is still showing off his toys like his gorgeous Porsche in the opening scene. Burnett is still breaking those toys as fast as Lowrey can buy them.

"You can get that buffed out," Burnett says after ruining his passenger car door.

But away from the comedy, there's still plenty of action. There's also plenty of cursing, so maybe don't watch this one at work.

This time they’re fighting for their lives as an Albanian mercenary, whose brother they killed, vows revenge.

Lawrence posted the trailer on Instagram, adding, "Y'all ready to ride wit us!? Ride together. Die together. #BadBoysForLife"

Smith used Martin's catchphrase from the franchise as he commented, "WOOOOSAAAHH, Y'all! Calm Down... January is right around the corner. @badboys"

The film will debut Jan. 17.
