John Hamburg Tapped to Direct Meet the Parents 4

Universal's upcoming fourth installment of the 'Meet the Parents' franchise has secured John Hamburg as both director and screenwriter. Original stars Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Teri Polo, and Blythe Danner are set to reprise their roles, while production will be managed by a powerhouse team including De Niro and Jane Rosenthal from Tribeca Productions, Stiller and John Lesher from Red Hour Films, and Hamburg himself via Particular Pictures. Plot details remain undisclosed, and a release date has not yet been announced. This sequel follows 'Little Fockers,' which was released in 2010, marking a significant gap since the franchise's last film. Hamburg, a long-time collaborator with Stiller, has previously contributed to the entire series and is known for directing comedies such as 'Me Time' and 'I Love You, Man'. The original 'Meet the Parents' film was a major box office success, grossing over $330 million worldwide.
