The boys from South Central L.A. might be returning for one more Friday.

According to reports, Tom "Tiny" Lister has said that Chris Tucker and Ice Cube have been in talks to bring back the cast of the 1995 classic.

Lister, or Deebo, the scariest person ever on screen, said that Tucker flew him on his private jet to St. Louis while the two discussed the possible return of Smokey, Craig, and Deebo.

Lister went on to say the following about the possible flick:

At least he has a sense of humor about it!

We recently talked about Chris Tucker being close to losing his home in Florida. Now the actor is calling attention to it in his comedy routine:

Well, really he needs $$$ and fast. Otherwise, he's going to lose his house!

Unfortunately for him, the offers haven't been pouring in for Chris Tucker and we imagine the residual checks from the Rush Hour trilogy have started to dry up. We have to assume that his lack of funds is the reason he hasn't been making the payments on his mortgage on his $6 million mansion in Florida.

But things are about to get that much worse for him as SunTrust Bank filed foreclosure papers on the property since the comedian owes more than $4.4 million on the 10,000 square-foot home. If he doesn't come up with some money fast, he's going to be homeless. Like, legit homeless.

Then again, did he really have to purchase a house with a basement fashioned into a pirate ship, complete with a mast and a sail? And who really needs a full outdoor kitchen … besides Charlie Sheen?!

Here's hoping you land back on your feet, Chris!

Maybe Ashton can move into Charlie's old show house! LOLz.

Check out the photo (above) of Charlies Sheen's El Lay mansion, which has gone up on the market for $7,200,000. It covers 7,924 sq ft, and includes 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms…for when you've got lots of trolls as houseguests, of course.

Sheen purchased the mansion back in May 1997, mere months before the release of his action-comedy classic Money Talks, which he co-starred in with Chris Tucker. Oh, to return to a simpler time!

Some of the features of Charlie's winning mansion include a library, a chef-ready eat-in kitchen, an outdoor kitchen with dining area, a swimming pool, spa, and a view of "the rugged canyon beyond."

Is $7,200,000 a lot of money? Sure, but this place has got HISTORY…and THAT is priceless!

Would U like to move into Charlie Sheen's mansion?

Talk about owing the tax man!

Chris Tucker's tax problems of epic proportions keep getting worse!

In addition to the State of California filing a lien against Tucker for allegedly not paying $3,594,409 in state taxes, he also owes the IRS $11,571,909.26 in federal taxes for the years 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006!

Yikes!

Someone is in DEEP shiz!

The man hasn't done a movie since 2007… and he doesn't want to talk about it.

While at the Apollo Theater's 2010 Spring Concert and Awards ceremony Monday night, Chris Tucker was approached by a reporter and asked about any upcoming projects he might have.

Instead of offering an answer, he bolted for the door.

Rude, much?

There are some that speculate that Chris' absence from the Hollywood scene stems from his desire to keep his quote up. Actor salaries are on the decline, and Chris wants to ensure he keeps bringing in $25 million paychecks like he did for Rush Hour. That theory makes him a greedy bastard.

Others suggest that because Chris received such big payouts for the Rush Hour franchise, Chris sees no need to work and devotes his time to helping out his many charities. That theory makes him a pretty decent bastard.

So, Chris, tell us - what kind of bastard are you???
