Ice Cube Announces That A New 'Friday' Film "Has Finally Got Some Traction"

Published Tue, June 25, 2024 at 12:00 PM EDT

"We finally got some traction with Warner Brother's," Ice Cube announced on a recent episode of Flava Flav's Flavor Of The Week show on LL COOL J's Rock The Bells Radio. “We’re working on it,” Cube shared. “We finally got some traction with Warner Bros. They have new leadership, my man Mike De Luca, who used to be at New Line when I first started, when I first did the first Friday and Player’s Club, and All About the Benjamins, you know, Mike De Luca was there.”

Cube said further that he is a bit disappointed that the situation took so long to resolve, with three cast members passing in recent years. “I was a little hot because they’d took so long because, you know, John Witherspoon passed away, Tiny passed away, A.J. Johnson passed away,” he said. “Like, man, we keep losing people and y’all keep dickin’ around not doing the movie the way it needed to be done.”

Flavor Flav's Flavor Of The Week show premiered on Rock The Bells Radio on June 10. Flav hosts the weekly music and interview show from the SiriusXM studio at Wynn Las Vegas on Rock The Bells Radio channel 43. The show airs every Monday at 10p ET.
