WHAT:   Premiere of Columbia Pictures' "Men In Black II"

        In "Men In Black(TM) II" Kay (Tommy Lee Jones) and Jay (Will
        Smith) reunite to provide our best, last and only line of
        defense against a sinister seductress who levels the toughest
        challenge yet to the MIB's untarnished mission statement:
        protecting the earth from the scum of the universe.

        It's been four years since the alien-seeking agents averted an
        intergalactic disaster of epic proportions. Kay has since
        returned to the comforts of civilian life while Jay continues
        to work for the Men In Black, the highly funded yet unofficial
        government agency that regulates all things alien on earth.

        While investigating a seemingly routine crime, Jay uncovers a
        diabolical plot masterminded by Serleena (Lara Flynn Boyle),
        an evil Kylothian monster who disguises herself as a sexy
        lingerie model. When Serleena takes the entire MIB building
        hostage, there is only one person left Jay can turn to -- his
        former MIB partner, who is now a drone in another large
        government office, the U.S. postal service, and prefers simple
        pleasures like his wife's cookies over standoffs with mammoth
        alien insects.

        It's a race against the clock as Jay must convince Kay -- who
        not only has absolutely no memory of his time spent with the
        Men In Black, but is also the only living person left with the
        expertise to save the galaxy -- to reunite with the MIB before
        the earth submits to ultimate destruction.
