Friday is a 1995 American buddy stoner comedy film directed by F. Gary Gray and written by Ice Cube and DJ Pooh. The film stars Ice Cube and Chris Tucker alongside Nia Long, Tiny "Zeus" Lister Jr., Regina King, Anna Maria Horsford, Bernie Mac, and John Witherspoon. The film follows Craig Jones (Cube) and Smokey (Tucker), two unemployed friends who face troubles after becoming indebted to a drug dealer while also contending with the neighborhood bully in South Central Los Angeles. While developing Friday, Ice Cube and DJ Pooh sought to counteract the violent portrayal of hood films and drew on personal experiences when writing the screenplay. Preparations for Friday began after the pair were able to secure funding from New Line Cinema, who granted finance in exchange for a seasoned comedian in one of the lead roles; Ice Cube and DJ Pooh quickly settled on Tucker during casting.
