January 14, 2014
Coming out this week is “Ride Along,” the new film from the director (Tim Story) and the producer (Will Packer) of the blockbuster comedy “Think Like a Man.”
Starring in the film are Ice Cube, Kevin Hart, John Leguizamo, Bruce McGill, Tika Sumpter, Bryan Callen, Laurence Fishburne, Jay Pharoah, John Kap, and Chase Anderson.
When a fast-talking guy joins his girlfriend’s brother—a hot-tempered cop—to patrol the streets of Atlanta, he gets entangled in the officer’s latest case. Now, in order to prove that he deserves his future bride, he must survive the most insane 24 hours of his life.
For Story, he gets to reunite with Ice Cube after directing in ‘Barbershop,’ and Packer gets to add familiar faces on the screen such as Tika Sumpter, Gary Owens, and Jay Pharoah.
Blackfilm.com recently caught up with Packer and Story as they talked about working together after doing both Think Like a Man and its upcoming sequel.
