Zac Efron will star in a remake of the 1987 hit comedy Three Men and a Baby for Disney Plus.
Gordon Gray, whose producing credits include The Rookie and Ben Affleck's The Way Back, is producing. Will Reichel has written the script for the remake. A director for the remake has not yet been set.
The original Three Men and a Baby starred Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg and Ted Danson as bachelors living a carefree lifestyle and sharing an apartment in New York City.
The trio is forced to adjust to parenthood as an infant girl fathered by Danson's character arrives at their doorstep.
That script, written by Jim Cruickshank and James Orr, was based on the 1985 French film Trois hommes et un couffin (Three Men and a Cradle).
Three Men and a Baby, directed by Leonard Nimoy, was a massive success with US$240 million (approx. $335 million) in worldwide box office on an US$11 million (approx. $15.3 million) budget. The stars re-teamed in 1990 for a sequel, Three Men and a Little Lady, which grossed US$71 million (approx. $99.3 million) worldwide.
