Rush Hour 4 is reportedly in the works at Paramount, which merged with Skydance Media earlier this year. According to multiple outlets, the green light for the production was all thanks to Donald Trump , who allegedly put in a personal request for the company to start production on the fourth Brett Ratner -directed installment.

In a November 25, 2025, X post , entertainment journalist Matthew Belloni shared via his “What I’m Hearing” newsletter that Paramount “WILL release Rush Hour 4 after prodding from Trump on behalf of Brett Ratner. Distribution deal. Producer Tarak Ben Ammar is lining up financing. Get ready for the dumbest possible state-controlled media.”

Below, Hollywood Life will keep you updated on everything we know so far about the production of Rush Hour 4.
