Rush Hour 4 is strolling through the early stages of development


There have been three installments so far, descending in critical reception as they came, but producer/creator Arthur Sarkissian isn't letting reviews or Chan's new career specificiations slow him down as he searches for a plot.

“I am working on Rush Hour 4 right now... 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.”

As for what that "something new" might be: "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.”

Is there a script: “Right now we haven’t decided yet but I’m very close to making a decision. I have about four or five names that we’re roaming on right now.”

Could director Brett Ratner be back: “If he wants to do it he’s more than welcome to do it but he’s got to do it in the right way.”

Any way and either way, "Sarkissian confirmed Tucker and Chan are interested in returning," so you can probably look for more news soon on the RUSH HOUR 4 front
