Meet Parents Sequel Focker In-Law Sets Thanksgiving 2026 Release with Ariana Grande

The 'Meet the Parents' franchise is set to return with its fourth installment, titled 'Focker In-Law,' scheduled for release on Thanksgiving weekend 2026. The film will focus on Greg and Pam's grown son, Henry, as he brings home his fiancée, introducing a new generation to the family’s comedic chaos and awkward dynamics, mirroring the original 2000 film. Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro, and other original cast members will reprise their roles, with Ariana Grande joining as the new fiancée, adding fresh energy to the storyline. The film promises more family misunderstandings, humorous mishaps, and the theme of acceptance, directed and written by John Hamburg, who worked on the previous films. Early teasers suggest a continuation of the franchise’s signature blend of cringe-worthy dinners and family tension. The cast and creators have expressed excitement about revisiting the story now that the actors are at ages paralleling those in the original movie, promising both nostalgia and new comedic elements.
