Skyler Gisondo, who was recently seen in James Gunn's Superman, is in talks to join Meet the Parents 4, starring Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro. If talks materialise, Gisondo will be seen as Ben Stiller and Teri Polo’s son in the film. He will also be the fiancé of Ariana Grande's character, a new entrant to the franchise.

Meet the Parents 4, written and directed by John Hamburg, who penned all three previous entries, is set for release on November 25, 2026. Universal will handle domestic distribution, with Paramount Pictures co-producing and managing international rollout.

Owen Wilson and Blythe Danner also star in prominent roles. While the full plot remains under wraps, sources confirm that the story will centre around the now-grown son of Greg Focker (Stiller) and Pam Byrnes (Polo), who gets engaged to a headstrong woman that seems all wrong for him. Grande is set to play the fiancée.

The franchise began with Greg’s awkward attempts to win over his girlfriend’s intimidating father (De Niro) and has since evolved into a sprawling family comedy. This fourth entry looks to continue that tradition with a new generation stepping into the spotlight.

Behind the scenes, Jane Rosenthal and De Niro are producing the film via Tribeca Productions, with Jay Roach through Delirious Media. Stiller and John Lesher are producing under the Red Hour Films banner, and Hamburg is producing through Particular Pictures.

In the latest version of Superman, starring David Corenswet, Gisondo plays the role of Jimmy Olsen. His other popular performances include Licorice Pizza, Booksmart, and Vacation. Previously, Gisondo portrayed Stiller’s son in Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb (2014).
