The original 1987 film was directed by Leonard Nimoy and starred Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson as New York bachelors who find themselves caring, and subsequently falling for, an infant. Based on the 1985 French film Trois Hommes et un Couffin (Three Men and a Cradle) by Coline Serreau, Nimoy’s take on the classic tale was written by James Orr and Jim Cruickshank. The movie was a massive hit for Disney, becoming the studio’s first live-action movie to cross $100 million at the domestic box office.

The Three Men and a Baby remake will reunite Efron with Disney after more than 12 years since High School Musical had concluded its successful trilogy with the theatrical release of High School Musical 3: Senior Year which earned a worldwide gross of over $250 million against an $11 million budget.
