Jackie Chan jokes about making Rush Hour 4 at 100, teases return to Shanghai Noon sequel
Jackie Chan recently offered a humorous update on the long-anticipated Rush Hour 4, joking that both he and co-star Chris Tucker might be past their prime by the time it finally happens. Speaking with ScreenRant, Chan quipped, 'Hurry up! Otherwise, Chris Tucker and me [will be] 100 years old. We'll be old men doing Rush Hour,' when asked about the sequel's status. Though no official production timeline has been announced, Chan emphasized he's still eager to return to the franchise, which launched in 1998 and earned over $850 million globally across three films. The last entry, Rush Hour 3, hit theaters in 2007. Chan previously shared in 2017 that he and Tucker had agreed on a script, but progress has since stalled. Alongside Rush Hour, Chan is also eyeing a return to another early-2000s buddy comedy series. He confirmed that a third installment in the Shanghai Noon franchise, titled Shanghai Dawn, remains in development. 'The script is still going on,' Chan told ScreenRant. Back in 2016, Chan and Owen Wilson were reportedly working on the sequel with MGM. Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite) was attached to direct, based on a story by Smallville creators Miles Millar and Alfred Gough, with a script by Theodore Riley and Aaron Buchsbaum. As Chan revisits some of his most iconic roles, fans of both franchises are hopeful that long-awaited sequels will eventually move forward. While timelines remain uncertain, Chan's playful optimism and continued enthusiasm suggest audiences may not have seen the last of these beloved duos.

Walton Goggins reveals tragic link to 'The White Lotus' plotline after wife's suicide: 'I was as lost as Rick'
Walton Goggins has spoken candidly about the emotional journey of filming The White Lotus season 3 in Thailand—a country forever tied to the grief of losing his first wife, Leanne Goggins, who died by suicide in 2004. In a heartfelt interview with GQ, the actor revealed how returning to locations he once visited in mourning reawakened profound memories. 'It was a very complicated story,' Goggins said. 'I thought it was really unrecoverable for me. Life on the other side of that.' Leanne Goggins, born Leanne Knight in 1967 in New Brunswick, Canada, lived a life shaped by passion and resilience. She battled early health complications, including jaundice, but went on to earn a degree and pursue her love for animals. Leanne founded Canyon Dog Walking, one of Hollywood Hills' most successful pet care businesses. She met Goggins in 2000 during the filming of Shanghai Noon. The couple married a year later and settled in Los Angeles. However, Leanne's struggle with depression and the pressures of relocating from Canada led to strain in the marriage. In November 2004, Leanne died after falling from a 17th-floor building in Los Angeles. Her death, ruled a suicide, occurred shortly after she had reportedly filed for divorce. Returning to Thailand, Goggins recognised filming locations as places he had visited right after Leanne's death. 'That's where I was the very first day I came here, 20 years ago, and in so much f--king pain,' he said. Now married to filmmaker Nadia Conners and father to their son Augustus, Goggins reflected on how far he has come. 'I wish I could whisper in [my younger self's] ear, 'You're going to be okay… if you can just hold on.''
