Stars Gabrielle Union and Jessica Alba confirmed that Spectrum Originals has picked up the cop show for another season Friday at the opening night of the 59th Monte Carlo Television Festival.

“We’re thrilled L.A.’s Finest has resonated with our subscribers in such a major way. When I first saw the pilot — a show about two strong women learning to trust and support each other and still getting into plenty of trouble — I knew I’d follow them anywhere,” said Katherine Pope, head of Spectrum Originals. “Kudos to Gabrielle and Jessica, as stars and executive producers, along with creators Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis and everyone else involved, for helping us launch our first original series and making the decision to greenlight a second season incredibly easy.”

“We are overwhelmed by the audience’s response to L.A.’s Finest,” said SPT President Jeff Frost. ”Gabrielle and Jessica are brilliant together and our incredible showrunners Brandon Sonnier, Brandon Margolis and Pam Veasey did an amazing job of crafting an action-packed and riveting season one. We can’t wait to work again with this amazing team of prolific and talented executive producers and dive into the next chapter for Syd and Nancy.”

The first Bad Boys movie was released in 1995 followed by another in 2003. EW confirms that the spin-off will center on a character from the 2003 film, played Gabrielle Union. Union won’t be the only one to stick with the small-screen rendering of the franchise and will be joined by Jerry Bruckheimer, who served as producer of the two films. Also part of the production are The Blacklist alums Brandon Margolis and Brandon Sonnier.

The series will follow Union, who played sister to Marcus (Martin Lawrence) and love interest to Mike (Will Smith), to Los Angeles where the former DEA agent will be working as an LAPD detective where her partner learns that she might be hiding a dark secret.
