A 24 Jump Street movie is in development with Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, and Ice Cube all in talks to reprise their roles, per Dexerto. The script was co-written by Jonah Hill, Meghan Malloy, and 22 Jump Street writer Rodney Rothman. The film skips number 23 entirely — a joke Hill attributed to the long development time, saying it "took so long to make we had to skip one." The original 2012 21 Jump Street grossed over $200 million worldwide; its 2014 sequel 22 Jump Street topped $330 million globally. A planned Men in Black crossover was scripted but never produced.
24 Jump Street is officially in the works and they're skipping the number 23 entirely. Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, and Ice Cube are all in talks to come back. Hill co-wrote the script with Meghan Malloy and 22 Jump Street scribe Rodney Rothman. His explanation for skipping a number: "took so long to make we had to skip one." The franchise has serious box office history — the first film cleared $200M worldwide, the sequel hit $330M. A Men in Black crossover was written years ago but never happened.
Fills a major film_tv coverage gap with specific, verifiable claims — named talent, named writers, specific box office figures, and a direct quote — all sourced to a single Dexerto report; the franchise's 12-year dormancy and $530M combined box office make this a meaningful cultural story.
The Jump Street franchise has been dormant for over a decade, making this revival a significant test of whether mid-budget comedy IP can still draw theatrical audiences in 2026. The original films were surprise hits that proved R-rated buddy comedies could compete with superhero blockbusters at the box office. A Men in Black crossover was once pitched as the next step — its failure to materialize makes this direct sequel the first real continuation since 2014.
jump street hasn't had a movie in 12 years. the franchise basically invented the 'self-aware reboot' before every IP started doing it. whether a buddy comedy can still open theatrically in 2026 is the real question — the originals pulled $530M combined, but the comedy landscape looks completely different now.
