Father of the Bride 3: A third installment in the modern Father of the Bride series is under development. Steve Martin starred in the 1991 remake as George, the anxious father, as well as in the 1995 sequel, in which both his wife and daughter got pregnant. Reportedly, the premise for the third film is that his son is gay and preparing to marry, but George “has problems with the whole gay thing” and so gets kicked out of the house by his wife. Writer/director Charles Shyer, who worked on the first two films, is on board to write the screenplay. [Nikki Finke]
