For years, there’s been talk of a “Twins” sequel called “Triplets” with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito learning they have a THIRD brother.  And he was supposed to be played by Eddie Murphy.  There was even a script.

But director Ivan Reitman says that Eddie got all booked up after the success of “Coming 2 America”, so he’s out.  But don’t worry, they’ve found a suitable replacement:  Tracy Morgan.

Reitman says, “I always thought he was one of the funniest men in the world.  I thought he would make a terrific triplet, and we rewrote the whole script for him.”

They’re hoping to start filming early next year.
