[BlackTree TV - New York] I had a chance to sit down with the megatalented Ice Cube, to talk about his role in the remake of 21 Jump Street and some upcoming projects that he is involved in. Particularly the 'Last Friday' movie where he is rumored to be putting Mike Epps, Kat Williams and Chris Tucker together for a no holds barred finale. And the NWA Movie which he is excited to be making with director John Singleton.
In the action-comedy 21 Jump Street, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) were enemies in high school who became unlikely friends in Police Academy. While they may not be the best cops on the beat, they have a chance to turn it around when they join the police department's secret Jump Street unit, run by Captain Dickson (Ice Cube). They trade in their guns and badges for backpacks and use their youthful appearances to go undercover. Trouble is, teenagers today are nothing like what they were just a few years ago, and Schmidt and Jenko discover that everything they think they know about being a teenager, from sex to drugs to rock and roll, is all wrong. More importantly, they both find they are still dealing with all of the adolescent problems they didn't address in their own teen years - and both will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind.
