Forget alien goo. The biggest challenge facing Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones in ''Men in Black 2,'' now in production for a summer 2002 release, is a host of estrogen-charged extraterrestrials. ''The big lead baddie is a female alien -- and we're doing a number of other female creatures for this one as well,'' makeup wiz Rick Baker tells EW. In addition to the archnemesis (played by ''X-Men'''s Famke Janssen), the Ray-Banned heroes will also battle familiar foes. ''The worm guys from the first film are coming back in a big way,'' Baker says. ''They're practically the stars of the movie.'' Alas, Baker says there will be no worm women -- though given that worms are hermaphrodites, we wouldn't rule anything out.
