Overview

  • Multiple outlets reported on June 10, 2026 that Sony is developing 24 Jump Street with a script in hand and Rodney Rothman attached to direct and co‑write.
  • Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum and Ice Cube are reported to be in talks to return to their original roles, with sources saying Tatum has received an offer but no deals are finalized.
  • Longtime producers Phil Lord, Chris Miller and Neal H. Moritz are back on the project and Moritz publicly posted a photo of the script that shows the title and a joking line about skipping 23.
  • The project remains in early development with no plot details, production start date or release date announced and negotiations over casting and producer fees still ongoing.
  • The move revives a franchise that earned more than $500 million worldwide across the first two films and could test whether studios can clear past budget and fee disputes to restart older comedy series.
