Don’t Expect an Ice Cube Biopic Anytime Soon, but the Legendary Rapper Provides an Update on ‘Ride Along 3’


Fans of Ice Cube might be eager to see a biopic about the legendary rapper, but they’ll have to wait a bit longer for that dream to come true. Despite his storied career in music, film, and beyond, Ice Cube recently made it clear that a biographical film about his life isn’t on the immediate horizon. However, he did share some exciting news regarding another popular project: the much-anticipated “Ride Along 3.”

In a recent interview, Ice Cube opened up about his current projects and future plans. When asked about the possibility of an Ice Cube biopic, he was straightforward, indicating that while the idea is not entirely off the table, it’s not something he’s focused on right now. “A biopic is something that could happen in the future, but it’s not a priority at the moment,” he explained. Ice Cube’s life and career certainly offer plenty of material for a compelling film, from his early days with N.W.A to his successful solo career and ventures into acting and producing.

While fans may be disappointed about the delay in a biographical film, Ice Cube provided a silver lining by offering an update on “Ride Along 3.” The action-comedy franchise, which stars Ice Cube alongside comedian Kevin Hart, has been a hit with audiences, and anticipation for the third installment has been building.

Ice Cube confirmed that “Ride Along 3” is still in development, and although specific details remain under wraps, he assured fans that progress is being made. “We’re definitely working on it,” he said. “The script is coming along, and we’re making sure that we bring something fresh and exciting to the table. We want to make sure it’s worth the wait.”

The first “Ride Along” movie, released in 2014, introduced audiences to the comedic dynamic between Ice Cube’s tough cop character, James Payton, and Kevin Hart’s bumbling but well-meaning Ben Barber. The film’s success led to a sequel in 2016, which further cemented the duo’s on-screen chemistry. With both movies performing well at the box office, a third installment seemed inevitable.

Ice Cube’s update on “Ride Along 3” has reignited excitement among fans who are eager to see the return of James and Ben. The combination of action, humor, and the undeniable chemistry between Ice Cube and Kevin Hart has proven to be a winning formula, and expectations for the next film are high.

As Ice Cube continues to balance his multifaceted career, from music and acting to producing and entrepreneurial ventures, his influence in the entertainment industry remains strong. While a biopic might not be in the immediate future, his ongoing projects, including “Ride Along 3,” ensure that his fans will have plenty to look forward to.

In the meantime, the anticipation for “Ride Along 3” continues to build. With Ice Cube’s assurance that the project is moving forward and the promise of more action-packed, comedic adventures, fans can rest easy knowing that the beloved franchise is in good hands. And who knows? Maybe one day we’ll get to see the full story of Ice Cube’s remarkable journey on the big screen. But for now, the focus remains on bringing more laughter and excitement to audiences with the next chapter of “Ride Along.”
