More ‘Three Men And A Bride’ Rumors

A year ago, in November 2008, rumors abounded of a new sequel in the Three Men and A… series. We’ve already had Three Men and A Baby and Three Men and A Little Lady, and now Three Men and A Bride is on its way. Allegedly.

Strangely, the rumors disappeared for a full year only to be rekindled by Contact Music, which is now repeating the story. The film is still thought to be Three Men and A Bride and Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson are all thought to have signed up to appear. However, Disney hasn’t yet commented on the speculation, let alone announced such a project.

Steve Guttenberg is the man allegedly in the know, and on top of prematurely announcing Three Men and A Bride, he also spoke of his desire to see sequels to Police Academy and Cocoon. I’m sure it’s merely a coincedence that these were his biggest hits as an actor back in the day.

“Disney’s developing Three Men and a Bride. That’s going to be a smash. A smash hit. They’re bringing everybody back for that. Nobody knows about it. I’m the first to talk about it.”

“It’s definitely time for another Police Academy. And I think they could make another Cocoon. They’re surefire hits and I think they’re good for the world. They make the world a better place and that’s what it’s all about.”

When these rumors first appeared last year I described Three Men and A Bride as “the most unnecessary sequel ever.” And my feelings haven’t changed on this subject. The three leads are all too old now and it’s not a film I have ever wished to be made. There are so many more sequels I spend time wishing for than this.
