Will There Be A Ride Along 3?

According to Variety, the development of "Ride Along 3" started back in 2016 after the release of "Ride Along 2." The outlet noted at the time that screenwriters Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi were working on the script with director Tim Story. All three worked on the first two films. 

A few years passed before there were any updates on "Ride Along 3," but in 2018, the movies' producer Will Packer gave one during an interview with Metro US. Packer revealed that while the script was still being worked on, the most significant production issue was Kevin Hart and Ice Cube. "We haven't locked in on the script just yet. And Ice Cube and Kevin Hart are both extremely busy, so we'll see. I've got to find the time," he said. "I've got to sew both of those guys down in order to make that movie."

Hart and Cube have definitely remained busy since "Ride Along 2." Per the International Business Times, Hart found time to celebrate the release of his latest film "Fatherhood" by literally swimming with some sharks. Hart is also slated to voice a character in the upcoming "DC League of Super Pets" and star in the movie adaptation of "Borderlands." Meanwhile, Cube has been working on "Last Friday," the much-anticipated latest movie in the "Friday" franchise. (However, the Wall Street Journal reports an ongoing dispute over the film between the actor-rapper and WarnerMedia.)

Everything considered, "Ride Along 3" is still in development, but with Hart and Cube involved in so many other things, fans may have to wait a bit longer for its release.
