Chris Tucker has continued entertaining audiences over the years through stand-up comedy. He’s even had some 2023 performance dates, including some shows in Las Vegas. In the same interview, he mentioned how much he loves stand-up and wants to continue doing that, and he even has his eyes on other ventures. He stated, “I definitely want to [write] a book.”
For those who miss seeing Tucker act, he can most recently be seen in the critically-acclaimed film, “Air,” from director Ben Affleck. Tucker spoke to People about getting the offer to play Howard White in the movie and how White is a personal friend of his, which made him want to do it even more. As the actor explained, “I talked to Ben [Affleck] and Matt [Damon] and they said, ‘Hey man, we want you to come in, have fun. This is what we are doing. It’s like making a movie with your friends’. And I said, ‘Okay.’ I love Michael Jordan. It’s my friend Howard White. Ben said I can do whatever I want to do. I love the brand, the Jordan brand. Let’s do it.”
Hopefully, fans won’t have to wait another seven years to see Tucker in a film again. The actor has expressed interest in getting “Rush Hour 4” off the ground, talking about it as recently as March 2023. Tucker may be seldom seen, but he tends to make his movie projects count when he does star in one.
