Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed he is starting to work on Triplets, the sequel to his 1988 comedy hit Twins, and could begin filming this year. Schwarzenegger, of course, all but ruled the action movie genre in 1980s with such hits as Conan the Barbarian, Conan the Destroyer, The Terminator, Commando, Predator and The Running Man. His career was so hot, in fact, that he took an uncharacteristic crack at comedy with director Ivan Reitman in Twins – where he played a twin in a genetic experiment opposite Danny DeVito – and the risk paid off.
The followup has been in development for a number of years, with the most recent update coming back in 2015 when Josh Gad reportedly signed on to pen the script. Since that time, all has been quiet on the Triplets front, but now Schwarzenegger and company are beginning to make some headway and might begin shooting in the very near future.
In an interview with EW about his new film Aftermath, Schwarzenegger revealed that Triplets, the long-gestating sequel to Twins that would add comedy icon Eddie Murphy to the family, may start shooting by year’s end. He says:


We are just now working on Triplets. That is on top of the list, for me. Because I’ve been trying to do that for 20 years. Ivan Reitman (the director of Twins) believes in it. Danny DeVito believes in it – who always believed in it – and Eddie Murphy believes in it. It’s going to be terrific! So, we are looking forward to that.”





In Twins, Schwarzenegger, played Julius, the so-called better half of an experiment where all the best traits of a group of men where combined to create a genetically superior human. But when the surrogate mother gave birth to two babies, it was discovered, one got all the “superior” genes and the other got the “crap.” The “superior” twin, Julius, was raised in a nurturing environment on a distant island, while the other twin, Vincent (DeVito), was raised in an orphanage in the states and eventually turned loose to grow up a small-time crook. Eventually, Julius and Vincent reunite and embark on a cross-country trek to discover their lineage. If the movie stays with its formula, Triplets will presumably introduce us to a secret third baby that went unmentioned in 1988 film and will grow up to be Murphy’s character.
Triplets appears to be Schwarzenegger’s best chance at recapturing his ’80s glory right now. While he says he’s at the ready for Terminator 6 when creator James Cameron re-obtains rights to the franchise in 2019, he said Thursday that a revival of the Conan franchise The Legend of Conan was dead in the water; and he turned down a chance to be in Shane Black’s reboot The Predator because he wanted a “more significant role.” Additionally, Schwarzenegger said he wouldn’t take part in the ’80s-inspired action sequel Expendables 4 since his pal Sylvester Stallone, who created the film series, isn’t taking part.
With Reitman and DeVito returning for Triplets, along with the addition of Murphy, fans should feel good about the prospects for the sequel. True, it’s been almost 30 years since the release of the original, but a lot of great talent is involved including DeVito, whose comedy has been hotter than ever the last 11 years with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. He may be the shortest character in Twins, but there’s no doubt he has longevity.
Triplets does not have a release date. We’ll keep you updated on the latest information.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
