Yeah you read the title correct, a possible "Rush Hour 4" is in the works. I thought Jackie was moving onto more dramatic roles to be the Asian Robert De Niro he desires to be, I also read a story online a few years ago stating Jackie didn't even like the Rush Hour franchise why would he be coming back for a fourth! Arthur Sarkissian it's going to happen and will have Chan and Tucker returning.
"I am working on Rush Hour 4 right now with Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. I’m trying to do it closer to how I did Rush Hour 1,
more down to earth, more gritty, introduce two new characters and make
it real the way the first one was. I personally was not happy with the
third one. I thought 1 and 2 were very good. I think 3 got out of hand a
little bit. It’s not a matter of just bringing them back to do another
segment of that or a sequel to it by putting them in another city and
having them bicker. I don’t want that. I want something new.
Maybe younger, maybe Chris is now married, maybe Jackie is married to
Octavia Spencer, I don’t know. Married to Chris’s cousin, they live in
Shanghai, Chris goes out to visit them. I don’t know, I want something
energetic."
"One of the things that surprised me and actually excited me was how they did Fast Five.
They kept the characters, they took them and they put them in a whole
different world. They put them in the world of a heist movie and it
worked. I think that was brilliant what they did because if you’re not
careful, what happens is you just keep repeating yourself. There’s not
much you can do. You’ve got to be very careful but that’s where
creativity and energy and good thought and a little bit of hard work
comes to try and give them something that’s in that world but a little
different."
