Although Pops was the anchor, like someone else said, and others have died, I can definitely see another sequel working with the right script.

If they brought back Nia Long and Regina King and created a story that had them playing bigger roles in the plot. I think that would give the sequel a shot in the arm interest wise.

Maybe even have The Lady of Rage come back and reek a little havoc lol. There’s a way to do it, just gotta be done creatively and Cube is a talented dude, I’d welcome a sequel if done right.

Man who cares anymore?

It's been 20 years. John Witherspoon has passed away. Tiny Lister has passed away. Chris Tucker obviously doesn't want to do it.

I said years ago a reboot with O'Shea Jr. and DC Young Fly would have been a better option, but they're both in their 30s now.

Just let it go.

Regina King is getting those white accolades now. No way she comes back to do a Friday movie.

He need to do something else man. Friday is done. All the people you’d want to see are either done with the series or dead. It just wouldn’t be the same anymore.. let it go.

Kevin Smith is still making Jay & Silent Bob movies. Clerks 3 is coming out this year and Mallrats 2 is coming out after.

Bill and Ted started in 1989. They came out with a third movie two years ago.

Creech and Chong started in the 70s and were still cameoing as their movie characters until the 2000s and came out with an animated movie in 2013.

Why should Cube be told that him and the other actors are too old when black doesn't crack and the white stoner movies continue their legacy with no push back. I understand moving on from where you started but two of the biggest actors, Ben Affleck and Keanu Reeves, got no flack for doing the same thing.

Ben Affleck got oscars and still playing Batman for Christmas sakes. He was in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot in 2019 and is signed on to return for Mall Rats 3. Keanu Reeves is arguably one of the biggest action stars ever after being Neo in the Matrix and John Wick. He still went back and did a sequel for a silly movie he did when he was a kid with a costar that people have forgotten about.

I'm saying all this to say that we shouldn't be telling ourselves we're too old or came too far to go back to what people got to know us from. If those guys can continue, why shouldn't we?

Good Point!

That shyt ain't happening Cube.

If it does it's gonna be some really bad direct-to-streaming movie that resembles nothing close to the first 3 Friday movies.

I'm cool with Friday After Next being the final Friday movie we ever gotten, I just wished that the fourth Friday came out shortly after the Christmas Friday while Cube and Mike Epps were still young and in their acting primes.

I actually prefer rewatching the Fridays sequels more than the OG.
It can with Cube passing it to his son Shea and DC Young Fly being Tuckers kid as well as new up and coming comedians like Mark Phillips also paying homage to Witherspoon and Tiny Lester.

Sam Jackson has never been paid $20 Million to star in a movie. He makes upwards of 10 million.

Martin Lawrence came close. He made $16 Million for Black Knight.
That's pretty wild to acknowledge because he's one of the 3 greatest black actors ever.
