Smith again reprised his role as Agent J with "Men in Black 3", which opened on May 25, 2012, his first major starring role in four years. After the release of the film, Smith was content with ending his work with the franchise, saying, "I think three is enough for me. Three of anything is enough for me. We'll look at it and we'll consider it, but it feels like that it might be time to let someone else do that." "Men in Black 3", released ten years after "Men in Black II" (2002), grossed over $624 million worldwide. Unadjusted for inflation, it is the highest-grossing film in the series.
