Ice Cube's Movie Dad Says New 'Friday' Sequel Has Been Greenlit

by HHL Editors

John Witherspoon has played Ice Cube's dad Mr. Jones in all of the Friday movies.

It looks like his going to whip out the character once again.

In an interview with an Orlando radio station, Witherspoon revealed that he had recently run into Ice Cube at the airport, and that Cube had told him a fourth Friday was on, and they would be meeting about it soon.

Apparently Warner Bros. had been holding up the movie, but an executive shake up had recently freed it.

Witherspoon didn't address the $64,000 question of whether Chris Tucker would finally return to the franchise as Smokey.
