Jada Pinkett Smith is celebrating Will Smith’s return to the Bad Boys franchise.

The star, 52, attended the premiere of her husband’s sequel Bad Boys: Ride or Die in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, posing for photos separately from Will as she walked the red carpet at the Coca-Cola Arena on May 22.

Will, 55, was spotted posing solo and with costar Martin Lawrence, whom he joined to interact with fans in the crowd. Jada took time for fans too and signed autographs, as seen in video posted on her Instagram Stories.

Will also “liked” an Instagram post from Jada, in which she showed off her stunning ensemble for the event: a unique black-and-white gown featuring a knee-length hemline and wavy cape, all with a swirled pattern throughout.

“In a region that loves architecture … @irisvanherpen is perfect for a Dubai red carpet,” the Set It Off star wrote in her caption.

In a post on Will’s Instagram grid, the Oscar winner shared videos and photos from the red carpet that put himself and fellow franchise veteran Lawrence, 59, front and center as they celebrated the fourth Bad Boys film.

“Well that was a FANTASTIC way to kick this thing off! Thank You Dubai!! @badboys back on the move,” he captioned the post.

Bad Boys started with the 1995’s original, directed by Michael Bay. The series revolves around the adventures of two Miami police detectives, Mike Lowrey (Will) and Marcus Burnett (Lawrence).

A synopsis for the upcoming film teases that the two “are back with their iconic mix of edge-of-your seat action and outrageous comedy but this time with a twist: Miami’s finest are now on the run.”

Alexander Ludwig, Vanessa Hudgens, Eric Dane, Tasha Smith, Ioan Gruffudd, Paola Nuñez, Jacob Scipio, Melanie Liburd, Tiffany Haddish and Joe Pantoliano also star in Bad Boys: Ride or Die. Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah co-directed the film after previously helming 2020’s Bad Boys For Life.

Jada previously opened up to PEOPLE about her relationship with Will amid the release of her memoir Worthy last fall. “I’m going to be by his side,” she said of Will, whom she has been married to for 26 years.

The couple, who tied the knot on New Year’s Eve 1997, share two children: son Jaden, 25, and daughter Willow, 23. The King Richard actor also shares son Trey, 31, with ex-wife Sheree Zampino.

Of the state of her marriage to Will, Jada said they were “still figuring it out,” and revealed that they had been separated for six years before the Oscars in 2022.

“We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together,” she added. “We just got deep love for each other and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

Bad Boys: Ride or Die is in theaters June 7.
