New ‘Meet The Parents’ Film in the works

EXCLUSIVE: Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Teri Polo and Blythe Danner are in early talks to return for a new film in the Meet the Parents franchise, in development at Universal Pictures.
Plot details are being kept inside the circle of trust. John Hamburg — who co-wrote all three prior films in the franchise, and produced the most recent, Little Fockers — is set to write the screenplay. No word yet on who’s directing.
A comedy juggernaut hinging on uncomfortable situations with in-laws, Meet the Parents centers on the hilariously awkward and tension-filled dynamics between male nurse Greg Focker (Stiller) and his intimidating, ex-CIA father-in-law, Jack Byrnes (De Niro), watching as the dynamic between them both evolves and stays the same, as Greg marries Jack’s daughter, Pam (Polo), and has children with her. Also a core cast member, Danner plays Jack’s wife, Dina. While Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand also appeared in multiple films as Greg’s parents, Bernie and Roz — along with Owen Wilson as Pam’s ex-boyfriend, Kevin — it’s not yet clear whether they’ll return.

If we’re doing 2000s sequels we need a tropic thunder 2 with black face Ironman

Hopefully this turns out better than Zoolander 2

They probably should've taken the hint with how the last one performed. At 81, it's like 50/50 at this point whether DeNiro even makes it through the filming tbh

You can’t milk a cat, but you can milk every last ounce of a previous hit film

An 80 year old trying to walk in those stacks he wears to look taller should be humorous at least

I hated Meet the Fockers.....Barbra Streisand 
So have no hope for this.

Great. A pair of actors whose star power has faded and haven't been in much of anything good for over a decade. Nothing says paycheck like forcing a fourth movie after the last one was just a steaming pile of crap.

Obvious plot is the daughter is older and she brings a guy home to meet Greg.
Greg is now the crazy father. Deniro just sits back and laughs.

It made $310 million at the box office.
First one made $330 million.
Second one made $522 million.
Like them or not, they make bank. I've only seen the first two...never got around to seeing the third one. But I liked the first two. First one is obviously much better ( even though Greg is obviously too good for Pam ), but I liked the second one well enough.
I just hope De Niro can manage to get through filming in between throwing Trump fits every five minutes.

We are in the most derivative era in hollywood history

I saw the OG MTP in the theaters but never quite understood the hype.

Meet The Parents? Should be Bury The Parents after almost 25 years.

Deniro thinking Greg had an affair and fathered a child out of wedlock and then this trading card reveal was funny (Rusty Bridges):

They absolutely shite all over the legacy of the first film with the completely humorless sequel.

Or you flip the script. Son brings home a girl, and Greg’s wife and Jack team up to give her hell. Greg has to deal with his wife turning into her dad, etc.
