After recently hitting its 20th anniversary, details on the final installment of the Friday movie series have been revealed. Lead star Ice Cube has confirmed that plans for the fourth installment, Last Friday are moving forward, but delays are in occurrence. The rapper-turned-actor shared with HuffPost:
“You have a lot of stars that I need to bring back. They wasn’t superstars when I first put them in the movie, but they are now…So it cost a lot more money to make that movie than it did in the past…It’s hard for movie companies who sometimes have a corporate ladder. It’s hard for them to wrap their heads around doing a movie like this sometimes when they look at the raw numbers. It’s hard for them to say, ‘Ok, we need to spend 25, 30 million dollars to do the new one,’ but the raw numbers don’t support that so it never makes it up the corporate ladder,” Cube said. “So that’s a tragedy, because we’re dealing with entertainment and we’re dealing with giving the people what they want. And it sucks when ‘business’ moves out the ‘show.’ It’s show business, but sometimes the business becomes ‘business show,’ instead of ‘show business.’”
