Will Chris Tucker Return For FRIDAY 4?!
Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
He will if New Line writes the check, and it seems that Ice Cube is determined to have that happen. He gets that the one thing that will make another sequel worth seeing would be the return of Smokey.
I got a tip-off about this from a reader who directed me to an audio interview. The material about a potential FRIDAY sequel comes about 2/3 of the way into the piece if you want to hear it for yourself:
Hi,
Ice Cube sat down to talk to Angie Martinez and said that Chris Tucker (Smokey) will be back in part 4!
Listen to the interview here!

Wouldn't this be the first non-Rush Hour movie Tucker's done in 8 years if it happens.
-
What would these masterpieces be without the brilliance of sir tucker?

Friday was a classic and Chris Tucker was the absolute best part about it. I thought the series ran its course but Tucker could actually put some fire back into it. Consider me very interested. One other thing. I've been a fan of Cube since back to NWA days but I gotta admit I'm pissed his new movie beat out my Grindhouse this weekend. Bah! But oh well. What can you do? If you're like me... you're going to see Grindhouse again. Peace.

the original was a classic, thanks in large part to Tucker. I was always a bit turned off by him though turning down the sequels and wanting more money and all. I was just thinking he hasn't done anything besides Rush Hour and from what I understand he's a bit of a recluse. The Rush Hour films were ok but for the life of me I can't remember anything about them. It also always bugged me that after the first Rush Hour he all of a sudden became a $20 mil a pic guy, never quite understood that.

--...and do "Saturday"? the 2nd and 3rd were just awful.
-
YAY!!!
-
Tucker's all about the $$$$$. Would be a funny movie though

Chris Tucker - The least hardest working man in showbiz

where's the RUUUUUUM!

Friday was better than all of the sequels, but the sequels werent complete shit, just passable.
-
Haven't seen the sequels, don't care to. But if Ice Cube and DJ Pooh (Red) write the screenplay, F. Gary Gray directs again, and Chris Tucker plays Smokey, I'll most definitely be there opening night.

PUH-LEESE, Chris Tucker only does Rush Hour movies.
by gibsonusa returns
That's enough to keep him in the $$ fa life!!
-
The story and direction was lame. The trouble with the third film was that there was no straight man, everyone was mugging for all they were worth and it just turned into a big steaming turd.
-
And even she will only pretend.
-
Tucker doesn't even curse anymore, let alone do movies about weed heads. NO WAY is that going to happen.
-
It's Friday, he ain't got no job, and he ain't got shit to do. C'mon Smokeeeeey!
-
I can't stand that douche. He was grating after about 20 seconds of that movie - and any other movie - he's in. That high pitched crap spewing out of his mouth. Ice Cube needs to tell that fucker to take a fucking hike. The douche has only done the Rush Hours after that and they suck due to his "I'm so funny" schtick. Tell that no talent "Where have you been Chris Fucker" to take a fucking leap Ice Cube!
-
You think this man gives a shyt what some of you losers think? Hell no. I respect him cause the man stays in his lane. He had good successs after those Rush Hour films and was offered a ton of projects. He didn't do any of them cuase he wasn't interested. Sure tucker could've jumped in the fast lane for the money and did movie after movie, but he didn't. Say whast you wasnt but tucker was A list and may still be. Hollywood saw a bankable comedic actor and he could've demanded 20 million for his next projects but he didn't, which makes me question some who says he's greedy. For not whoring himself out to Hollywood I respect him, cuase he sure had a hell of a chance to make more money then he got for just those The Rush Hour films.

I used to love Ice Cube. Also used to love Chevy Chase
by sydbarretsmydad
They were both edgy motherfuckers doing their thing better than anyone did. Now, they are reduced to fucking kids movies......oh well, I still got my copy of Modern Problems and Straight Outta Compton. But Eazy-E would have bitch slapped Ice Cube for the fluff he puts out now.
-
Why would he not want to be part of a Friday sequel ,but he would do two Rush Hour Sequels. Friday and the sequels afterwards were great movies,the first film was indeed an instant classic. I hope this rumor is true.
-
Damn you Ruby Rod!
-
When Sam Jackson shoots him in the trunk of the car in Jackie Brown and shuts his annoying mouth up. If only it were true.
-
Well, yeah, as long as he can make it to church on time.
-
early in movies would do me just fine. That annoying friggin chatter that is supposed to be funny. MEH!
-
He rules because he is enjoying his life. He also isn´t greedy like most actors who demand billions for a cameo. You can do nothing but respect Tucker for not appearing all over the screen 6 times a year. He picks his roles and shines in them. It´s not about the quantity, it´s about quality. Tucker is quality whether you like or don´t like it.
-
All I needed to know was Chris Tucker wasn't in 'em. Friday without him in it would be like watching The Three Stooges with only 1 or 2 stooges. Funny, maybe, but not as funny as it should be.
-
...the words coming out of my mouth? Not with Ice Cubes cock in your gob! It would be comedy gold if Tucker had an electric voice box and spoke German through the entire movie.
-
Would we be this lucky to have the legendary and incredible Chris Tucker return to one of the most brilliant and fantastic film series in decades? [/sarcasm]
-
Mike Epps, that's who! He is the worst. But how can CT do another Friday when he supposedly won't curse or smoke weed?
-
This talk back (the people in it) is why it will happen. The budget and his actual pay could be almost nothing, but they could give him a large slice of the back end. It could happen.
-
I would love for him to play an LAPD cop. Oh, the irony.
-
haha
-
if they make a friday 4 they should hav chris tucker and mike epps in it
