Yesterday, it was reported that President Donald Trump has been lobbying financial supporter Larry Ellison (and his son David Ellison, CEO of Paramount Skydance) to revive anti-woke action comedies of the 80s and 90s.

In particular, Trump wants them to bring back Brett Ratner’s Rush Hour series, starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker.

Rush Hour 3 came out 18 years ago and since then Ratner has directed Amazon MGM’s upcoming Melania Trump documentary.

The long-awaited sequel with be Ratner’s first movie since 2014’s Hercules, starring Dwayne Johnson.
