Twins 2: Triplets, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger (Julian) and Danny DeVito (Vincent), is moving forward and will shoot in Boston this January. Eddie Murphy, who was originally going to play the long lost third brother, will now be replaced by "30 Rock" star, Tracy Morgan. Eddie had to back out due to film scheduling conflicts (Beverly Hills Cop 4).  We know many of you are sad to see Eddie out of this Arnold project, however, we love Tracy and we have no doubt he’ll bring some of the biggest laughs to Triplets! 

Original Twins Director, Ivan Reitman (Kindergarten Cop, Junior, Twins), will also return.

"We started a script with Eddie, and after the success he had with Amazon Prime on Coming 2 America, he got himself booked up heavily," say Reitman. “We knew we were going to make it at the beginning of next year. I’d been good friends with Tracy Morgan for a long time and always thought he was one of the funniest men in the world. I thought he would make a terrific triplet, and we rewrote the whole script for him."

The Triplets script is by  Dylan Dawson and Lucas Kavner. CAA Media Finance will rep North America and Rocket Science is handling international sales. It will be very hard to tell these three brothers apart!
