Speaker 3: So, speaking of the Friday, was there lessons that you
Speaker 3: know because let me if I'm wrong. Was there issues
Speaker 3: with Warner brother because they owned the franchise?
Speaker 4: Right, Warner Brothers, they are they they distribute the franchise.
Speaker 4: So they distributed the first one, and it has in
Speaker 4: the contract that they have the right to distribute each one.
Speaker 3: So what were there issues trying to make more Fridays?
Speaker 3: Like they have to approve something before you could actually
Speaker 3: make a Friday.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so talk about that.
Speaker 4: Well, we you know, we did the first one and
Speaker 4: and I wasn't gonna do another one. After that, they
Speaker 4: approached me, could you want to think? Could you think
Speaker 4: of another one? So I said yeah, and then I
Speaker 4: approached Chris Tucker. He didn't want to do it, so
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, okay, this is kind of throw
Speaker 4: a little monkey wrench in the movie.
Speaker 5: So so we did it next my Gaps. That was great.
Speaker 5: People loved it. Then we did Friday at the next.
Speaker 4: And then they asked me to write a fourth one
Speaker 4: and I wrote and they.
Speaker 5: They had an issue because.
Speaker 4: Craig and Day they ends up in jail from selling weed,
Speaker 4: you know, and finally end up in jail, and dee
Speaker 4: Bo and the Joker Brothers is trying to you know
Speaker 4: what I mean, they in jail too, so they're trying
Speaker 4: to you know, trying to you know, stab them up
Speaker 4: and ship so they just was like, Jail's not funny.
Speaker 4: You know, nobody, nobody's gonna laugh about being in jail.
Speaker 5: I'm like, you're ridiculous.
Speaker 4: Like then all these movies come out like Oranges, New
Speaker 4: Black and and Let's Go to Jail and Life Life
Speaker 4: and you know, Get Hard and all this shit, and
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, so y'all definitely don't know what y'all
Speaker 4: talking about. So I just kind of, you know, that
Speaker 4: was in twenty thirteen, you know, so I just kind
Speaker 4: of stopped paying attention to him. Then they asked again,
Speaker 4: they begged again for me to write another one.
Speaker 5: So I come a right one to fit. This time
Speaker 5: won't be about jail.
Speaker 4: And they loved it, but they just had these little
Speaker 4: notes that they kept trying to change things, trying to
Speaker 4: change it, and I'm like, dude, you guys do not
Speaker 4: know what needs to go on a Friday movie. Like,
Speaker 4: stop pretending like you guys are smart when it comes.
Speaker 5: To this shit.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean, I know it, I know
Speaker 4: it's gonna work. I know it's not gonna work. And
Speaker 4: they just kept messing around. No one knows, back and forth,
Speaker 4: back and forth. You know, six months of this shit
Speaker 4: and then John Witherspoon passed away, so they like just
Speaker 4: fucked around till the man passed away and then Tiny
Speaker 4: passes away. A. J.
Speaker 5: Johnson.
Speaker 4: It's like the movie We're gonna go back on the block.
Speaker 4: And so you know, I've been trying to get it,
Speaker 4: get control of the franchise.
Speaker 5: Since then.
Speaker 3: So you essentially essentially you wrote to you actually wrote
Speaker 3: two more Fridays. Yeah, and that's never came out. Yeah, obviously. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So you say you're trying to get control of the franchise.
Speaker 3: How do you go about trying to get control of
Speaker 3: the franchise?
Speaker 4: You know, I mean, of course appealing to their superiors
Speaker 4: on you know, their basically sleeping on money.
Speaker 2: Is like a buyout thing.
Speaker 5: Maybe like if you pay, you can not I'm not.
Speaker 5: I'm not. I'm not gonna pay for it. I'm not
Speaker 5: gonna pay. You know.
Speaker 4: What they need to do is let me control it
Speaker 4: and they'll make a lot of money, but they're not
Speaker 4: gonna make it.
Speaker 5: So you're open to doing another one.
Speaker 4: I'm open to saying if another one can be done.
Speaker 6: While you're doing that, while that's happening, there's still other
Speaker 6: franchises being created that you're involved in Yeah, right, so barbershop, Yeah,
Speaker 6: it is right there. You have the RDA yet yeah,
Speaker 6: and so now you're like entrenched in family households. I
Speaker 6: wanted what that experience was like for you from boys

Speaker 6: it's like, oh, ice Cube, the guy who makes the
Speaker 6: kid movies, like I grew up. Ice Cube was the
Speaker 6: dude that was telling us that. And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 6: I'm with this, I'm with this. So how's that transition?

Speaker 6: Don't see people grow, right, we don't see our artists grow,
Speaker 6: we don't see them evolve, and we don't see them
Speaker 6: have these moments. So what was that transition like for you?
Speaker 4: It's amazing, you know, to be able to sustain love
Speaker 4: in families, and like, once I realized my fans, my
Speaker 4: core fans, were having kids and their kids was in
Speaker 4: elementary and junior high, I felt like, Okay, It's time
Speaker 4: to do something to to make sure I'm still cool
Speaker 4: in this household, that household or whatever. The last thing,
Speaker 4: I want you to look at your kid and be
Speaker 4: like ice cute, you should? You should look him up.
Speaker 4: He used to be He used to be cool.
Speaker 5: You know what I mean. We used to rock him,
Speaker 5: you know, he used to used to use to record.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I.
Speaker 4: Didn't want to be that guy, you know, I wanted
Speaker 4: I wanted the kids to know who I was. So
Speaker 4: the way to do that is to do a movie
Speaker 4: that they love and that's always gonna get played, like see,
Speaker 4: are we there yet?
Speaker 5: The kids grow.
Speaker 4: Up, they love it, but they outgrow it, but then
Speaker 4: there's always new kids coming up who their parents is like, Yo,
Speaker 4: sick of you bugging me? Stick you in front of
Speaker 4: a movie. Put in already there yet? So the love
Speaker 4: is generated, you know what I'm saying. With each with
Speaker 4: these generation that watched that movie, they end up growing
Speaker 4: up and then they reach a point where they discover
Speaker 4: my music they discover my my other movies and stuff.
Speaker 5: So it's.
Speaker 4: It's a way to reach rejuvenate fans and to make
Speaker 4: sure that that the youngsters know who you are and
Speaker 4: they're not just relying on you should have heard death certificate,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: You should have heard today was a good day.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you've done something very unique inside of that too,
Speaker 6: and that's provided opportunities so that that's the first time
Speaker 6: we see Eve in the movie, the first time we
Speaker 6: see Nicki Humanaj in that type of throw. You were
Speaker 6: super intentional about that, like, given opportunities to people, especially
Speaker 6: in the rep world.
Speaker 4: If they're great, you know what I mean, if they're good,
Speaker 4: if they if they have a personality that I think
Speaker 4: people want to see more of. Yeah, you know, it's
Speaker 4: really all about being the right person for the role.
Speaker 5: And so.
Speaker 4: You know, I didn't know they was all gonna work out,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, never know how it's gonna
Speaker 4: be when they when they actually audition or they come
Speaker 4: on set. But yeah, I want to give people a
Speaker 4: shot that that Hollywood may be overlooking.
Speaker 3: So speaking of Hollywood screenwriters, they're on strike right now.
Speaker 3: And this goes back to the web three conversation where
Speaker 3: somebody told me, you know, I just do. I started
Speaker 3: to thinking about it, and I'm like, they might not
Speaker 3: have as much leverage this time because of chat GBT,
Speaker 3: And it's like, well, if I can have a computer
Speaker 3: writer script in a day, then I don't necessarily need
Speaker 3: a screenwriter.
Speaker 5: What's your thoughts on that.
Speaker 4: Well, I think you know, it's something that's very real
Speaker 4: and it can happen. Yeah, you can have a computer
Speaker 4: write to a script in a day, but you know,
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, will it be as
Speaker 4: as real as a person writing it.
Speaker 5: Will they have that feel to it?
Speaker 4: Who knows? You know, it's a it's a new world.
Speaker 4: That's why they don't strike, you know, they want to,
Speaker 4: you know, curve it in some ways.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 4: The worst thing is for them to tell the studios
Speaker 4: not to do it, but then they go home and
Speaker 4: do it when it's time for them to turn in
Speaker 4: that spread.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so.
Speaker 4: You know, at the end of the day, you know,
Speaker 4: technology is here. Everybody got to make an adjustment. I
Speaker 4: don't know if I want all my entertainment to you know,
Speaker 4: come from an artificial source, you know, I mean, just check.
