About That Popular 'Black Films Don't Sell ...Ice Cube's Resuscitated 'Ride Along' w/ Kevin Hart, Gets MLK Holiday 2014 Release Date
Speaking of Ride Along, which I wrote about this morning, revealing new cast members...
It's just been announced that the Universal Pictures' action comedy, which stars Ice Cube, Kevin Hart, Tika Sumpter, Jay Pharoah, John Leguizamo and Bryan Callen, will open in theaters on January 17, 2014 - the MLK holiday weekend that year.
Hart co-stars with Cube as "a high school security guard who is ready to get married, but first he must survive a Training Day-like ride along experience with her tough cop brother, who doesn’t want the marriage to happen and tries to scare off the suitor."
Cube plays the tough cop brother.
Sumpter will play Hart's fiancee; Callen will play a wily, undercover cop alongside John Leguizamo; and Pharoah will play a street-smart informant.
Tim Story will direct, while Will Packer will co-produce the project via his Rainforest Films banner, with Ice Cube's Cube Vision, and Matt Alvarez's LBI Entertainment.

Congrats to Ms. Tika Sumpter. Im sure she'll do well. This seems like a cast that will have good chemistry. Look forward to it.
