Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker have officially broken the internet today as leaked set photos for Rush Hour 4 have finally surfaced, and they feature none other than Donnie Yen. The long and agonizing wait for fans around the world is finally over. Ever since Rush Hour 3 arrived in theaters all the way back in the year 2007, audiences have been practically begging for another sequel to bring back their favorite buddy cop duo. Now it is officially happening, and production is well under way. Newly leaked footage taken from a heavily secured and glamorous casino set located in Macau provides undeniable confirmation that cameras are indeed rolling on the highly anticipated fourth installment.
On this massive set, Jackie Chan reprising his role as Inspector Lee and Chris Tucker returning as the loudmouthed Detective Carter were spotted recreating their iconic and fast paced comedic banter. They both look just as dynamic and energetic as they ever did while running and dodging massive fiery explosions during what appears to be a high stakes heist sequence. Inside sources close to the production team have revealed that the legendary duo has been secretly training with a top tier Hollywood stunt team for the past three months. They are putting in this extreme effort to deliver the most insane and practical action scenes of their entire careers, proving that they still have what it takes to entertain global audiences.
While the massive global fandom deeply mourns the tragic passing of veteran actor Kenneth Tsang, who famously played the beloved Captain Chin, the movie studio has decided to honor his incredible Hong Kong police legacy in a very respectful way. They have officially cast martial arts cinema legend Donnie Yen as the brand new and completely no nonsense Police Commissioner. This new character is reportedly the one who reluctantly forces Inspector Lee and Detective Carter to work back together on this massive case.
Furthermore, following the unfortunate passing of Alan King, who played Steven Reign in previous films, the production has brought in some serious Hollywood heavyweight talent. Bryan Cranston has reportedly been spotted walking around the set, stepping into the role of the terrifying new criminal mastermind who is secretly running a massive global crypto counterfeiting syndicate.
Adding even more fuel to the massive fire of excitement surrounding this project, rumors are currently swirling around the internet that fan favorite actresses from Rush Hour 2, namely Zhang Ziyi and Roselyn Sanchez, might just make some surprise cameo appearances. To top it all off, action movie visionary James Wan is reportedly stepping in to co direct a jaw dropping zero gravity helicopter fight sequence. With all of these incredible elements coming together, Detective Carter and Inspector Lee are clearly about to face their most dangerous and absolutely hilarious mission to date.
