Will Smith is John Hancock

Here are the first pictures off the Los Angeles set of Will Smith’s latest superhero-themed flick John Hancock, taken Friday! The film will be directed Peter Berg (The Kingdom).

Looks like Will’s character takes to the bottle while “flying around”! (Why are his legs super shiny?)

Here’s a little synopsis: A tortured superhero (Smith) who has fallen out of favor with the public enters into a questionable relationship with the wife (Charlize Theron) of the public relations professional (Jason Bateman) who’s trying to repair his image. He tries to transform himself by romancing this alluring housewife, causing chaos in the city.

John Hancock is set for a July 2, 2008 release.
