Schwarzenegger again in the sequel to this cult 1980s comedy?

Will twins Julius and Vincent, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito, finally meet? Directed by Ivan Reitman in 1988, this comedy impressed me thanks to the incredible duet staged by him.

The sequel, Triplets, was launched in 2012, bringing together the same team as the first part. Even a new baby joins the merry army: Eddie Murphy.

Unfortunately, the project failed before Schwartz pulled it out of the drawer in 2017:

“We’re working on Triplets right now. He’s topped my list because I’ve been trying to do that for 20 years. Ivan Reitman believes in it. Danny de Vito, he’ve always believed in it and Eddie Murphy believes in it. It’s okay, be wonderful! “Told the Terminator translator into the EW microphone.

Note that this sequel was ultimately not so high on the cast list as the project is still forgotten. It was believed that he would eventually be buried after the death of his director, Ivan Reitman, on February 12, but this does not seem to be the case.

Was questioned at the time Arnold Sports Festival In Columbus, Schwartz showed that triplets were still relevant.

“We got the blow after the death of Ivan Reitman, who led the first twins and who had to take control of the triplets. Now we have to wait a bit for it to be spent, cry and get the project back on the table.”she said.

“We should have filmed it in October 2022 and it could have been so. But now we have to look for another director and see if we can continue this project.”He noted.

Arnold did not specify whether Eddie Murphy was involved in the project. In any case, 74-year-old Schwarz and 77-year-old DeVito no longer have a big choice: now or never. If filming finally starts, we will know more about it this fall!
