Arnold Schwarzenegger arrives at the 2018 Sean Penn J/P Haitian Relief Organization Gala at the Milk Studios on Saturday, Jan. 6, 2018, in Los Angeles.
Just when you think a project has completely died, it comes back to life. The long-mooted sequel to Twins, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito, is an active movie again, with Arnie confirming that the screenplay for the new film is finally complete.

Furthermore, as had been long-rumoured, Eddie Murphy will be playing the third brother in the new film. He’s officially attached to the project, according to Arnie. All Schwarzenegger would say with regards the plot of the new film is “funny thing that happens in the mixing of the sperm”. That’d be one of the more unusual taglines for a modern studio movie were the film’s marketing department to go with that.

Eddie Murphy arrives at the 87th Annual Academy Awards in Hollywood, California on February 22, 2015.
Schwarzenegger’s immediate priority will be filming Terminator 6 this summer. It may well be that Triplets, as the Twins sequel is called, will take its place in the queue after that. The original film, incidentally, is 30 years old at the end of the year. Yikes.
