Mekhi Phifer has got some bad news for '8 Mile' fans, on the heels of the flick's anniversary ... a sequel ain't happening!!!

has some bad news for"8 Mile" fans, on the heels of the flick's platinum anniversary -- don't waste time looking for a sequel, ''cause it ain't happening!!!

We caught up with the"8 Mile" star shortly after the classic film marked its 20th anniversary ... and we had to ask if there was anything in the works for a new story related to the OG characters.... there will never be a follow-up to the film, as far as he's concerned. He says, sometimes it's best to leave the classics alone ... adding there's never been any convo about making one happen.

Now, he does acknowledge a sequel could be interesting -- just story-wise -- but he says he wouldn't want to be in it, and he doubts his costarAs far as their relationship goes ... he says they're still pals and they keep in touch. He adds, Em is focusing more on his music right now, so that's another reason they won't be returning to 8 Mile Road.

MekhiPhifer GOOD! That trash is not needed.

Good. There doesn't need to be a sequel for 8 Mile. It would ruin it. Pedowood doesn't have any original ideas anymore.

thought for sure their was going to b a sequel where Papa Doc becomes a tax attorney n B-rabbit needs his old rival help take down this new rap crew

But why would there be 🥴

Who gives a shit

They protecting white history amongst black history. I call this to be racist gatekeeping the ppl interest to premeditate a great white hype theory in the future.

Noone needed one

Who the fuck wants a sequel to 8 mile 🤣🤣

and I agree with MekhiPhifer because simply 'Why should there?' there's no reason really.

Was anyone asking for a sequel 20 years later?..Not all successful films need a lame sequel to ruin their legacy.,

Why would anyone want/expect a sequel to that movie ?

Honestly this is great news. The chances anyone does a sequel better than or even on the same level as any orginal is incredibly slim.

Who asked for a sequel ?

R

Good news for the fans!!! Don’t ruin it

Good, it doesn’t need one!

Somebody wanted a sequel

8 mile don’t even need a sequel

Learn journalism 🙏

Thank you!!!!

Thank god

Smart man.

Eminem Eminem Eminem𓃵 GOAT𓃵 GOAT 8mile 9mileSequel

What would they call it.... 2nd.....8 Mile

Ok but hear me out: 8 Mile: Mom's Spaghetti

Fine by me.

we don’t want one

The 8-mile sequel would be called 10-mile and B-Rabbit just gonna live in Southfield or Oakland lmaooo

I have to laugh 'Since the film dropped in November 2002, Eminem's music career's had its ups and downs, but he's still widely recognized as a hip hop icon,' They are talking about the best selling artist of THIS CENTURY 🤣🤣 Please hire better journalists

F€¥ the free world😂😂😂

love that movie

There should be!!!

Why would we need a sequel…?

But that’s good news for the fans
