The worms are one of the many aliens featured in the Men in Black franchise, but what exactly is their backstory and where did they come from?
The sci-fi comedy Men in Black features a wide variety of alien species, and the worms are among the most memorable, but their backstory isn't that clear. Released in 1997 to rave reviews, Men in Black follows agents of a secret government organization who are tasked with preventing alien threats on the planet earth. Released at the height of Will Smith's popularity, the movie offers the perfect mixture of science fiction, action, and sidesplitting comedy.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT World-building is perhaps the strongest part of the Men in Black franchise, and the universe that the movies take place in is populated with a wealth of fascinating alien species. The timeline and mythology of Men in Black are fleshed out through the various sequels and shows, and the species known as the worms are always part of the story in some way.
The animated Men in Black series explains that the worms chose to live on Earth because it freed them from the despotic oversight of their emperor, and they are primarily motivated by their love of coffee. They play a much larger role in 2002's Men in Black II and protect Laura when she is on the run. They speak their own language but are also fluent in English, and they even flirt with Laura on several occasions, showing themselves to be quite cheeky.
The Worms Have A Connection To The Star Wars Universe While it's quite subtle, Men in Black references Star Wars and even seems to suggest that there is a connection between the worms and the legendary science fiction franchise. Not only is Star Wars creator George Lucas shown as one of the many celebrities who are secretly an alien, but the worms also speak a language taken directly from his franchise.
