One of these things is not like the other. Actually, none of these things are like any of the other…and that’s what made the premise of Ivan Reitman’s 1988 film Twins work. But how do you further capitalize on the hilarious assumption that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito are twin brothers? Add in Eddie Murphy as a long-lost sibling and call it Triplets. DeVito talked about the possibility of a sequel in an recent interview with Steve. Currently, there is no director attached, but Reitman will produce the project via his Montecito Picture Co. The sequel is in the process of recruiting writers as no substantial creative talks have occurred yet.

THR reported on the development of Triplets. The original film posited that Schwarzenegger and DeVito were twins born “in a secret lab somewhere in the Western hemisphere” where Schwarzenegger got all the good genes and DeVito got all the crap. While the original was hilarious, I must admit that I couldn’t help but crack up the first time I heard about the idea. Check out a synopsis and trailer for the original movie, Twins below:

I would so watch the shit out of this movie. Are you guys too young to remember this movie, or you people remember the golden age of Arnie? Twins, Junior and Kindergarten Cop were my childhood, lol

Thoughts?

I, uh, am at a loss for words on this subject. I had mixed feeling about the original, although it defiantly had it's moments. But both of these guys are almost 25 years older than they were during the original...and let's not forget that Eddie Murphy hasn't exactly been in any comedy classics recently. The man used to be comedic gold (Eddie Murphy Raw anyone?), but he's in a decline. So looking at those two factors, I'm skeptical about this one.

Yeah, but it's high time for a dirty comedy, and I would love to see Arnie and Devito back at it. Throw in Eddie? I think it could be hilarious. Obviously anything that has ever been an Arnie movie is being review for a sequel, ever since he came back to movies, and I always loved the chemistry those two had. Eddie needs as movie from the 80's to jump into. And maybe because there won't be another Beverley Hills Cop, why not this?

It would most likely suck, but it's an hilarious concept, lol.

I don't I've ever seen more then just a few minutes of the first one. Didn't appeal to me, but this has to be better then the recent crap that has been made.
