Rush Just because a small-screen version is on the way, don’t mean the “Rush Hour” movie series is dead. Far from it, if you ask star Chris Tucker.
Tucker appeared on The View this week and confirmed that he and Jackie Chan are looking at doing a “Rush Hour 4”.
Chan got tongues wagging last month when he mentioned he was meeting up with Tucker in Beverly Hills to discuss the possibility of reviving the franchise.
Tucker has confirmed the meeting – and that the topic of the night was sequel ideas.
“We were talking about some stuff (for Rush Hour 4) so we’re thinking about doing something like that,” the funnyman said.
Meantime, CBS is readying it’s small-screen spin-off of the comedy-action franchise, with Jon Foo and Justin Hires playing the roles Chan and Tucker originated, respectively, on the big screen. “Lost” alum Henry Ian Cusick, Aimee Garcia, Page Kennedy, Betsy Baker, Jessica Van and Kirk Fox co-star. “National Treasure” helmer Jon Turteltaub directed the pilot.
“Rush Hour 3” was released in 2007.
