Actor Mekhi Phifer Says There Will Never Be An 8 Mile Sequel And Demands That Hollywood leave Classics Alone

Mehki Phifer recently discussed the idea of a second film with TMZ.  Mekhi Phifer played Future, Eminem’s friend and host of the rap battle venue Em wanted to conquer. 

“Sometimes it’s best to just leave it alone,” Phifer explained. “Once you make a classic, no reason to fool around with it.”

Phifer also says that Eminem wouldn’t be interested in starring in it either.

“Leave the classics alone and it’ll be all good. Just live with the 8 Mile. The story we told is a story. It could be interesting but I wouldn’t be in it, and I’m sure Eminem wouldn’t be in it either.”

8 Mile hit theaters back in November 2002. It opened at No. 1 at the box office in the US having grossed $51.3 million OPENING WEEKEND!
