Nancy Meyers, writer, director and producer of The Parent Trap, Something’s Gotta Give, The Holiday, It’s Complicated and The Intern, among other titles, will write, direct and produce a new movie for Netflix.
Meyers also has written and produced reboots of Father of the Bride and Father of the Bride Part II, and directed What Women Want, with Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt.
The deal marks her first collaboration with Netflix since 2020, which saw the release of short film Father of the Bride Part 3 (ish).
That short brought together the cast of Father of the Bride and Father of the Bride Part II as well as Robert De Niro, Florence Pugh and Ben Platt for a very special Banks family reunion that benefited World Central Kitchen.
No further details on Mayer’s new movie and release date were disclosed.
