The Fockers are ready for Ariana Grande.
After the “positions” singer’s role in Meet the Parents’ fourth movie was confirmed, the original film’s cast including Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro and Teri Polo, shared more about what to expect.
“She’s so talented,” Ben gushed in a June 9 interview with NBC’s Joe Fryer, per Today. “She’s so great with comedy. Can’t really talk too much at this point about the movie but the character she’s playing, she’s gonna be really, really funny and the whole engine of the new movie.”
And when the interviewer referenced the Oscar nominee’s musical prowess, Ben and Robert joked the newest film—which follows Meet The Parents, Meet the Fockers and Little Fockers—will “of course” be a musical.
As Robert joked, “Half the scenes I have with her will be singing scenes.”
Meanwhile, Ariana is just as happy about joining the film as the cast is to have her. After the news broke last month, she wrote on an Instagram Story, “Very thrilled to be joining (meeting) the family !!!!!!!”
