“New details about the sequel to The Family Stone just dropped, and it sounds like it’s going to be amazing.
In the beloved 2005 Christmas film, Dermot Mulroney played Everett Stone, who brings his uptight girlfriend, Meredith, played by Sarah Jessica Parker, home to meet his family over the Christmas holiday. Naturally, chaos ensues when Meredith isn’t exactly a hit with the rest of the family, including the matriarch, Sybil, played by the late Diane Keaton. Now, Searchlight has officially confirmed details about the much-discussed sequel, titled The Families Stone, and fans are losing it.
Deadline just reported that the film picks up 20 years after the death of her character, matriarch Sybil Stone (as depicted in the original film), as the Stone family again reunites for Christmas. However, they face a major surprise: Their father, played by Craig T. Nelson, invited the woman he’s fallen in love with to meet the family.
“The Families Stone. Coming Soon. Starring Claire Danes, Rachel McAdams, Dermot Mulroney, Craig T. Nelson, Sarah Jessica Parker, Luke Wilson, Tyrone Giordano, Elizabeth Reaser, Paul Schneider, Brian J. White,” a new Instagram post shares.
Production will start in New York this fall.

Dermot Mulroney Dropped Details of ‘The Family Stone’ Sequel
Back in May, Mulroney revealed some interesting details about the upcoming sequel to The Family Stone.
Mulroney, 62, whose diverse roles range from My Best Friend’s Wedding to The Hunting Wives, appeared on The Tangle With Kyle Ridley podcast and revealed the title of the upcoming sequel, as well as who has already signed on to reprise their role.
“I think it’s going to be entitled The Families Stone,” Mulroney shared of the sequel to the beloved holiday movie, written and directed by Thomas Bezucha, who is returning for the sequel. “Everyone’s up for returning. I can be on record,” Mulroney added, naming Rachel McAdams, Luke Wilson, and Craig T. Nelson. “They announced that Tom has the script. I’ve read it. I can’t even process yet the depth of it, especially in light of losing Diane this year.”

Back in November, Bezucha told CNN that Keaton’s death in October at the age of 79 was motivation to get the sequel written.
“I’ve been haunted by the loss of Sybil for months now while I worked on it, and so this was a blow on a tender bruise already,” he shared. “Mentally, I’ve been spending time in that house where I’ve been missing her for a while already.”
However, he made it clear that he had no interest in making the film if the original stars weren’t up for returning.
“I’m not interested in the Brady family reunion without the original Jan,” he said.
