All it took for MGM to seal up a long-simmering deal with international action comic Jackie Chan, 47, was for the studio to see the nearly $68 million box office take of last weekend's opening of Chan and Chris Tucker's "Rush Hour 2." So now, reports Variety, MGM and Chan will sign the dotted line for the star to update the 1960 Jerry Lewis classic, "The Bellboy." (In that one, the slapstick comedian never uttered a word.) Lewis's version was played in a hotel in Miami Beach. The Chan version, which at the moment has no specific start date, is expected to be set against the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. As for the box-office draw of "Rush Hour 2," the film made more than twice the amount earned by the 1998 original "Rush Hour" and had the biggest opening ever for a comedy, doing better than "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me." (Among other records set by "RH2": the biggest August opening ever, beating "The Sixth Sense," and the highest-grossing action-comedy ever, beating "Men in Black.") Another Jerry Lewis movie that was remade, and very successfully, was Eddie Murphy's take on Lewis's "The Nutty Professor." And, Variety also reports, there will be a "Rush Hour 3."
