Why it matters

Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro reunite 16 years after *Little Fockers* for the *Meet the Parents* comedy franchise, directed by long-time series screenwriter John Hamburg.

About Focker-in-Law

Twenty-six years after Meet the Parents, the Fockers return for a fourth film. Focker-in-Law hands the hot seat to the next generation: Henry, the son of Greg and Pam, brings home a bride his relatives cannot quite read, and the Byrnes family machinery of suspicion starts up again. John Hamburg, who co-wrote the first three movies, directs this one himself, taking over from Paul Weitz. Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller are back as Jack Byrnes and Greg Focker, with Teri Polo, Blythe Danner and Owen Wilson around them, and Ariana Grande joining the cast.

Universal Pictures opens the movie on November 27, 2026, with Paramount handling it overseas. It is the first entry in sixteen years, long enough that the joke has shifted: the in-law under interrogation is no longer Greg but his son. Whether that lands depends on how much mileage is left in De Niro's deadpan, which carried the earlier three. If you liked those, this looks like more of the same shape rather than a reinvention.
