The upcoming Rush Hour 4 is on the way if this report by Chris Tucker is anything to go by. The actor revealed that he had been working with the Rush Hour producers for a long time on a fourth installment of the movie series. Of course, his follow-up remarks are not just confirmation of another sequel but also that it has been in development for quite some time. “I’m gonna do another Rush Hour. We’re busy on the script right now.” — Chris Tucker
Danny (Chris Tucker) and Lee (Jackie Chan) have been through a lot over the course of their many adventures. As a result, Chan is not sure whether another sequel will be able to capture that same spark as previous installments, especially when it comes to the chemistry between himself and his co-star. Then again, he does believe that director Brett Ratner has what it takes to pull it off.
