Ice Cube definitely got a lot of people’s attention when he posted a message about his 1995 film “Friday,” which reached its 24th anniversary on April 26. And now, following the success of sequels “Next Friday” in 2000 and “Friday After Next” in 2002, the rapper has followed that post with news of when he wants the fourth movie in the franchise released.

“To the 24 years that have flown since this came out, all I gotta say is… BYE, FELICIA,” wrote Cube last month. “Do you want the next chapter??”

Then on a recent episode of ESPN’s “The Jump,” Cube said the script is done and is currently undergoing edits from the film studio. But he’d love for it to hit theaters on April 26, 2020, for the 25th anniversary of the first film. 

“We pushing for it, we finished the script, we getting notes from the studio and it’s going back and forth,” he explained. “We’re going to get into pre-production and start hiring people. It would be nice for this to come out on the 25th anniversary.”

And for those who badly want Tucker to be in the new film, he said it’s a possibility but only if it makes sense.

“I don’t know. I talked to [Ice] Cube about it,” he said last year on the ESPN podcast “The Plug.” “He told me he was working on some stuff. And if it comes together right, I’m definitely gonna look at it and see if it works. ‘Cause I never say never; I definitely want to check it out. If it works, it’s a possibility.” 

“At this point, I want to make sure that it’s the right thing to do,” added Tucker. “‘Cause you don’t want to do something for money if it’s not the right thing to do. ‘Cause then it disappoints fans.”
