Ice Cube Still Hopeful About Chris Tucker

Ice Cube is still planning to return to the Friday franchise. And he's still holding out hope that the original's breakout star, actor/comedian Chris Tucker, will be on board for the series' fourth installment. "I'm waiting to give it to them, but it's politics and it's economics getting it to where it needs to be," Cube said. "It's moving in the right direction to get made, but it just ain't moving as fast as I want it ... but it's happening. ... With a script, nobody is all the way down until they like their deal and they sign it, so everything is just a theory. He's written into the movie, and once they give us the green light to start hiring actors, then we're going to present him with the movie and an offer and we'll see if he takes it."

Ice Cube Serious About 4th Friday?

He began hinting at it earlier this year, but it looks like Ice Cube really could be attempting to resurrect his popular Friday film series. And original film star Chris Tucker might actually be on board.

TMZ claims that a Cube Vision Production rep said that the movie is going to happen.

“Absolutely yes the studio is in the process of getting the entire original cast to do anotherFriday," the rep says. "[Ice Cube] is very excited about this and has every intention to make it happen.”

Nothing has been made official yet, however. No actors have been contractually bound for the project and there's no word if Mike Epps, who 'replaced' Tucker in the sequels, will have a part in the project.
