Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller Reunite for ‘Meet the Parents’ 25th Anniversary, Tease Fourth Film With Ariana Grande: ‘The Script Is Really Good’
A group consisting of Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro, Teri Polo, and director Jay Roach convened to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the film “Meet the Parents,” a comedy that follows male nurse Greg Focker (Stiller) as he navigates through some embarrassingly awkward situations while meeting his girlfriend’s family for the first time. De Niro portrays Greg Byrnes, Teri Polo’s father character and a former CIA agent who is fond of cats and maintains a strict rule with a seemingly benevolent (but perhaps not) grip. They came together at New York City’s Tribeca Performing Arts Center as part of this year’s Tribeca Festival, an event co-founded by De Niro and Jane Rosenthal in 2002.
