Aug 21, 2012 By   Jonathan Hailey, Assistant Editor Speculation about whether there would be a final Friday  installment was quelled last month.  Ice Cube  confessed there would be a film called  Last Friday . When Cube announced the new film, he also mentioned he and  Chris Tucker  were talking and trying to work something out to have Tucker appear in the film. However, it’s not looking like Chris Tucker will be apart of it. Chris Tucker sat down with  Tom Joyner  for an interview and told the radio host production on the final  Friday  film had begun. Tucker also expressed that he probably wouldn’t be in the last one either. “I talked to Ice Cube because it’s such a big rumor and people get mad if you say you ain’t doing something, so I’m real careful. They’re workin’ on a script. I don’t think it’ll be as special as the first one. We’ll see what happens, but I doubt it that I’ll do another  Friday .” I can u...

Mark Davis/Getty Images By   Steven J. Horowitz August 21, 2012 12:10 PM ET Brandy wants to bring R&B back. Yesterday afternoon, RCA and Chameleon Records invited select media to preview 11 tracks from Brandy's upcoming sixth album,  Two Eleven , dropping October 16th.
