June 12, 2002 — Director Brett Ratner had this to say about more Rush Hour movies:

After his work on Red Dragon (a remake of a prequel that wasn't actually a prequel when it was first made...ohh, my head hurts), Ratner plans on filming two more sequels to the Chris Tucker/Jackie Chan buddy-cop pictures back-to-back, which is also a current craze with sequels (LOTR, Harry Potter, Matrix, etc.). Says Ratner, "When I did the first Rush Hour, I ended it so the plane was headed for Hong Kong. If it worked, the plane would land in Hong Kong (at the start of the sequel)...I would love it if we could make Rush Hour 3 and 4 back to back. When youre on a roll, its easier to keep going instead of starting up again."
