Jimmy then wondered if the Hollywood star believes in ghosts, and he played things coy with his answer. He said: “I believe that there are things that you don’t understand, Jimmy.” Will confidently shared that his tale was “100 percent true”, astonishing both Jimmy and Martin. Further into the game, Martin let slip that he was once considered for Rush Hour opposite Jackie Chan but declined, letting Chris Tucker snag the gig.

Having validated the claim as accurate, he went on to say: “I was happy for Chris. That was what it was supposed to be – Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. And they brought [out] a beautiful franchise with Rush Hour.”
