Well, here's the most unexpected news we've heard all week: "Three Men and a Baby" is getting another sequel. That is, if you trust Steve Guttenburg. And, really, who trusts Steve Guttenburg? Read on to see what the actor's been telling people, my gentle Examiner readers...
"Three Men and a Baby" didn't exactly set the world on fire when it was released, but it did well enough to earn itself a sequel-- "Three Men and a Little Lady". And now, someone played a cruel joke on Steve Guttenburg and told him that they'd need him for a third entry in the "Three Men and a..." series.
According to an interview with WENN excerpted over on Hollywood.com, Guttenburg had this to say:
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.”
Riiight, Steve. "Nobody knows about it". What interest Disney might have in another "Three Men and a..." film is beyond us, but that's what the word on the street is (that street being Guttenburg Avenue, but still). Plus, more good news for Guttenburg fans:
And Guttenberg's not settling for just one sequel -- he wants to bring back all the franchises that helped him find fame in the 1980s.
He adds, "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."
