Ice Cube accused Warner Brothers of hijacking the Friday franchise in 2021. Three years later, he credited DeLuca and longtime agent Michael Gruber for progress behind the scenes.

“It was like, “Yo, what the f### is going on with Friday? Man, let’s get this back online,’” Ice Cube said. “And I was a little hot ’cause they had took so long because John Witherspoon passed away. Tiny passed away. A.J. Johnson passed away. Like, man, we keep losing people and y’all keep dicking around not doing the movie the way it need to be done. They want to do it, but the key is it gotta be done, Flav, or we shouldn’t f### with it. So, they finally came to their senses.”

Friday After Next, the last film in the franchise to date, was released in 2002. It was the third entry in the series following the 1995 classic Friday and its 2000 sequel Next Friday. A short-lived TV show, Friday: The Animated Series, aired in 2007. It only ran for eight episodes.
