Get Ready for the High-Octane Return: Rush Hour 4 is a Go at Paramount!

Gamers and movie buffs, brace yourselves for a thrilling blast from the past! Rush Hour 4 is officially happening, and it's set to bring back the adrenaline-pumping action and hilarious antics we all love!

In a goliath move filled with secretive power plays, Donald Trump seems to have successfully influenced Paramount to reboot the legendary Rush Hour franchise. According to Semafor, Trump pressured the Ellisons, with Larry Ellison—Paramount's largest shareholder—being a major Trump supporter, to revive the iconic series!

After Deadline's bombshell report, it’s confirmed: Paramount will distribute this action-packed comeback on behalf of Warner Bros. And yes, Brett Ratner, the original director, is back on board to helm this powerhouse film!

The Rush Hour series, starring martial arts maestro Jackie Chan and comedy king Chris Tucker, was a juggernaut hit! The first movie practically smashed the box office in 1998, raking in a staggering $245.3 million worldwide. The sequel upped the ante with a colossal $347.4 million return in 2001. However, Rush Hour 3 stumbled slightly in 2007 but fear not, the legends are ready to reunite for what promises to be the best installment yet!

Trump's nostalgia for the raucous action flicks of yore got the ball rolling, and now Paramount is on the frontline of a mega bid to acquire Warner Bros., with industry whispers hinting at a regulatory breeze compared to Netflix or Comcast. The Hollywood stage is set for epic proportions, folks!

Back in December 2022, Jackie Chan teased us with talks of Rush Hour 4, and Chris Tucker matched that excitement, declaring the new installment as 'the Rush of all Rushes.' Both stars are pumped to chase the spotlight and deliver legendary performances that we'll never forget!
