- Eddy Murphy to star in sequel of 1988 smash hit Twins
- Will play Schwarzenegger and DeVito's long-lost sibling
- Ivan Reitman, who directed Twins, will also return
ARNOLD Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito will have a new sibling in the shape of Eddie Murphy in "Triplets," the upcoming sequel to their classic smash hit comedy "Twins."
Universal Pictures is overseeing the film, still in the early development phase, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Schwarzenegger, 64, and DeVito, 67, starred together in the 1988 comedy as fraternal twins conceived as part of an experiment in a genetics lab to create the perfect child, combining the sperm of six different fathers.
The former bodybuilder played the brother who inherited all the desirable traits, while DeVito got all the "genetic trash."
Though the plot for the sequel is still being worked on, Murphy, 50, will play their long-lost third sibling.
Ivan Reitman, who directed Twins, has signed on to produce Triplets but it is not known if he will be directing.
Schwarzenegger had put his Hollywood return on hold in May 2011, when news broke that the former California governor had fathered a love child with a former household employee.
But now Schwarzenegger is set to re-enter showbiz with his role in Triplets, in addition to his starring role opposite Sylvester Stallone in an upcoming action flick The Tomb.
