Ariana Grande Wraps on ‘Focker In-Law’: ‘I Will Miss This Bunch Terribly’

Ariana Grande has wrapped up filming for "Focker In-Law", the fourth installment in the hit comedy franchise "Meet the Parents". Taking to Instagram to share her excitement, Grande gushed about her experience on set, calling it an "unimaginably special" few months. She expressed her affection for the Fockers and Byrnes families, stating she'll miss them terribly.

A glimpse into the production was shared through a photo carousel, featuring shots of Grande embracing Ben Stiller's character Greg Focker alongside another picture of her bonding with co-star Beanie Feldstein. The film is set to hit theaters on November 25, 2026, marking the return of its beloved cast including Robert De Niro, Blythe Danner, and Owen Wilson.

Skyler Gisondo joins the returning cast in the upcoming installment directed by John Hamburg. Stiller revealed that his character's new storyline was inspired by his own age at the time of making the first film, mirroring Greg Fockner's predicament in introducing someone to their family. The "Focker" series has proven successful, grossing $330 million worldwide and spawning two sequels.

With its next installment on the horizon, fans can look forward to more laughter-filled moments from this beloved comedy franchise.

I'm loving how this franchise keeps going! I mean, who wouldn't want to see Ariana Grande as part of the Focker family drama? I've gotta say, Ben Stiller's character always cracks me up... and now that Skyler Gisondo is on board, I'm hyped for some fresh energy. November 25 can't come soon enough! Has anyone else seen the last two installments? What did they think of Greg Focker's antics?

omg just saw that Ariana Grande is joining the Meet the Parents fam i'm so here for it!!! i loved the first 3 movies and I'm sure she'll bring her own spark to the franchise. can't wait to see what kind of chaos Greg Focker gets himself into this time around

I'm so over how hyped everyone's being about another "Meet the Parents" movie . Like, seriously, how many times can you rehash the same tired jokes and family gatherings? I don't get why Ariana Grande is getting all excited about it... isn't she like 10 years old or something? And what's with the whole "I'll miss them terribly" thing? Is she really gonna be that invested in some fake families on screen? Also, $330 million worldwide? That's just a lot of money being thrown around for a bunch of over-the-hill comedies. Can't we get something more original or edgy for once?

idk about Ariana Grande starring in another meet the parents movie ...like what's next? she's a superstar not some comedic actress and isn't that just 2 years away from the actual filming schedule lol, who's gonna edit all those takes & reshoots

lol just thinkin about Ariana as Greg's wife is gonna be weird anyway love how they always keep it funny like what's next for Greg? and btw has anyone else noticed how Owen Wilson's character never changes? still pretty cool, right?

OMG u guys, I got a scoop! so apparently Ariana Grande was low-key obsessed with playing this role in "Focker In-Law" and now that it's almost done filming she's literally sobbing thinking about how much she'll miss her new Focker fam . Ben Stiller is keeping the storyline secret but allegedly it's something to do with aging, which I guess kinda mirrors Greg's original intro to the Byrnes' family... anyway, can't wait for Nov 25, 2026, this movie is gonna be lit !

I'm not buying it . Ariana Grande is a superstar with a massive following, so why hasn't she been announced for any of the previous Focker movies? It's suspicious that she's only now joining the cast for the fourth installment. And what's up with the release date being pushed back by two years? That just seems like a lazy move to me . I'd love to see some proof that she actually filmed on set and isn't just riding the coattails of Ben Stiller's character .
