  • In this VladTV flashback, the late John Witherspoon detailed why Chris Tucker never appeared in another Friday film. According to Witherspoon, Tucker's starring role in the Rush Hour trilogy garnered him much fame and fortune that he couldn't justify returning to Friday. John also talked about every cast member making just $5,000 for the film, but Chris Tucker recently revealed he managed to get a little extra.

      Friday is one of the most exloitive ignorant portrayal of black people. Not the killing . That was a smoke screen. To create a positive image of ghetto life. Though the homes were nice abides. Now on menace two society. Those were real project ghettos. But that's another story. He played a very simple minded ignorant character. Wit a bad heart attack diet. Pig feet . Fried chicken ECT really ?? Save another Friday. We can due without. Time to grow up & become the master civilized people we truly are. We can still make it very funny. But leave a message of care & economic self sufficient. Baby boy touched this subject. Melvin owning his own business. That says a lot. And it sends a positive sign to the viewer. A since of self economic development. Get my point. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤔 Tachalla.
