Disney and Warner Bros are sorting out the rights to Father Of The Bride 3 with Charles Shyer to write and direct (Nancy Meyers passed) and Steve Martin to return. (What else does he have going?) The twist in this threequel is that Little Matty is now 29 and gay and getting married to a Navy SEAL’s son. Father of the bride George is "thunderstruck and speechless" and has problems with the whole gay thing. So wife Nina kicks him out of the house, according to the pitch which Disney loved. Shyer is writing it with Marc Klein, David Hoberman producing again. "It’s a timely idea," my source said. "I told Charles I just hope it goes forward before gay stops trending…"

Okay, the source is gross but I am so here for this. The second is one of my all time favorite movies!
ReplyDeleteoh you cant do a Father of the Bride movie without Martin Short - it would be right!
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, this doesn't sound too bad. Loved the first two movies, and if all the actors are around, and willing to participate, I say go for it. Besides bringing back the family members (as well as Franck Eggelhoffer, naturally), I hope they also include what I now imagine is George and Nina's now grown-up 3rd child that was born in the 2nd movie.
