Chris Tucker on Rush Hour 4: It’s not going to be what you’ve normally seen

Late last year, Jackie Chan revealed during the Red Seas Film Festival that the next instalment of the Rush Hour franchise, Rush Hour 4 is officially in the works. It's been a few months since that announcement and now, Tucker is teasing his potential return in the sequel. While speaking to Audacy’s V-103, Tucker revealed that returning on screen alongside the acting legend Chan is something he is "definitely" down for while adding that he is equally "excited about it."

Tucker says, "You’re going to see a lot of good stuff coming, but it’s going to be on a whole other level. I’m excited about that. It’s not going to be what you’ve normally seen. Rush Hour 4, that’s something I definitely will probably drop in there because I love working with Jackie, but I’ve got some new stuff that I think you’re really gonna like. I’m excited about it."

The Rush Hour trilogy began its remarkable run in 1998, with its third instalment being released in 2007. Based on a Hong Kong investigator who is assigned to work on an international crime case with an outspoken LAPD officer. The two men end up becoming close friends despite being so drastically different from one another and driving each other crazy along the road. Talks for Rush Hour 4 have been on since 2017, with Tucker hinting a year prior that these discussions were taking place in the background.
