Zac Efron is heading back to his Disney roots to star in the remake of THREE MEN AND A BABY.

The remake of the 80’s movie is intended to be released on Disney’s streaming service, Disney+.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Gordan Gray will produce the movie.
In the past, Gray produced MCFARLAND USA, which was nominated for two Movieguide® Awards in 2016, along with family-friendly movies THE ROOKIE (2002), MIRACLE, INVINCIBLE, THE GAME PLAN, and SECRETARIAT.
Most recently, Gray produced THE WAY BACK (2020) starring Ben Affleck.
As of now, the remake doesn’t have a director attached.
The 1987 comedy originally brought together Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg and Ted Danson.
The movie’s plot features three New York City bachelors as they find themselves caring for a newborn baby.
The original movie, directed by Leonard Nimoy, was Disney’s first live-action movie to make over $100 million domestically.
Because of the success, a sequel, THREE MEN AND A LITTLE LADY, was released in 1990 with the same cast.
Movieguide®’s review says that the sequel proves, “That monogamous marriage and having children by your spouse for life is the highest social order, and that love conquers difficult situations.”
