Rush Hour 3, set for an August 2007 release, will put stars Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan in a "fish out of water" scenario reminiscent of the last two films in which each respective character was placed in unfamiliar territory.

Joining the cast is Hiroyuki Sanada (The Last Samurai) as the villain. Rounding out the rest of the cast is Vinnie Jones, Yvan Attel, Roselyn Sanches and Houston Rockets star Yao Ming.

Rush Hour went on to gross $245,300,000 worldwide with the sequel Rush Hour 2 grossing $347,400,000. Studio expectations remain high for Rush Hour 3.
