John Witherspoon on Chris Tucker Not Returning to 'Friday' (Flashback)

In 2018, John Witherspoon recalled what it was like to work on “Friday,” saying that everyone got paid $5,000 for the movie and that the dialogue was mostly improvised. Witherspoon was asked why Chris Tucker never reprised his classic role of Smokey in any of the sequels, an absence that he believed was due to the $20 million he was making with Jackie Chan in each Rush Hour sequel.
