Did somebody page Smokey? After weeks of hints and speculation, Ice Cube has finally responded to calls to confirm that his Friday reboot is a go. The rapper/actor tells TMZ that he's close to his goal of bringing back the entire original cast of the cult favorite film, including a reluctant Chris Tucker.
A rep for his company Cube Vision confirms, “absolutely yes, the studio is in the process of getting the entire original cast to do another Friday." The statement continues, "[Ice Cube] is very excited about this and has every intention to make it happen.”
Intention is great, but contracts are better. Hopefully Cube will be able to get Tucker to sign on the dotted line soon … and then Friday fans will have a real reason to celebrate.
