The Three Men and a Baby franchise consists of American family-comedies produced by various studios of The Walt Disney Company, including two theatrical films, one television series adaptation, and one upcoming reboot film. Based on the script co-written by Jim Cruickshank & James Orr, which was based on the premise of the 1985 French film. The plot centers around three best friends, who happily live their lives as single men, until a baby girl is left at their door. The individual installments detail their individual journeys, overcoming their personal desires to become effective selfless parents to the child.
The first film was received described by Metacritic as receiveing "generally favorable" reviews,[1] and the highest grossing film of 1987.[2][3] Conversely, its sequel was met with poor critical and financial reception with its perceived inferiority to its predecessor.[4][5][6] The films have since received nostalgic retrospective appreciation[failed verification], with some modern day critics[who?] classifying them as films with a cult following[failed verification].[7][unreliable source?] The TV show was met with mixed reception from critics,[8][9] though it gained a following with its viewers.[10][11][12][unreliable source?]
A new Three Men and a Baby title film is in development, as a streaming exclusive film for Disney+.[13]
