Ariana Grande's "Meet The Parents 4" co-star, Skyler Gisondo, responds to a harsh fan comment mocking his physical appearance in the film.
In an exciting development for fans of the beloved comedy series, it has been confirmed that Ariana Grande and Skyler Gisondo will be joining the cast of the upcoming film "Focker In-Law." [1][2]
Skyler, known for his roles in "Santa Clarita Diet" and "Booksmart," took to Instagram to announce his involvement in the project, sharing a post that included screenshots of a Deadline news report about his casting. [2] However, the post did not reveal any new details about the plot or the characters that Skyler and Ariana will be portraying. [3]
It is believed that Ariana will be playing the fiancée of Henry, the grown son of Greg and Pam Focker, who is set to cause a stir in the family with her unconventional personality. [1][3] Skyler, on the other hand, is in talks to star as Henry himself. [1]
The original Twitter user who responded positively to Ariana's casting was stunned to be included in Skyler's Instagram announcement, expressing their excitement in a quote-tweet. [2] Robert De Niro, who played Jack Byrnes, Teri Polo's terrifying soon-to-be father-in-law in the original movies, will also be returning, with Teri reprising her role as Pamela Byrnes. [1]
"Focker In-Law" is a sequel to the hit films "Meet The Parents" and "Meet The Fockers," with Ben Stiller once again stepping into the shoes of Greg Focker. [1] The first movie in the series, "Meet The Parents," came out in 2000. [1] Following the release of "Little Fockers" in 2010, which focused on Greg and Pam after they have welcomed twins, the series seemed to have come to an end. However, the return of the Focker family promises to bring laughter and chaos once again.
Ben Stiller recently heaped praise on Ariana Grande when discussing her casting for "Focker In-Law" during an appearance on "Today" in June. [4] The exact release date for the film has not been announced, but it is scheduled for release around Thanksgiving 2026. [1]
Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman, who played Greg's parents in "Meet The Fockers," are not expected to return for the sequel. [1] Ethan Slater, Ariana's boyfriend from the "Wicked" movies, also showed his support for the casting by liking Skyler's Instagram post. [2]
As more details about "Focker In-Law" are released, fans can expect to see a fresh take on the classic Focker family dynamic, with the focus shifting to the next generation. [1] Stay tuned for updates on this highly anticipated comedy sequel.
