The Nutty Professor 3: Family Genetics (2026)
Cast: Eddie Murphy, Jada Pinkett Smith, Janet Jackson
The legendary formula makes its long-awaited return, and this time, the scientific stakes have become a chaotic family affair. In The Nutty Professor 3: Family Genetics, the lovable Professor Sherman Klump has finally achieved a sense of inner peace, embracing both his physical appearance and his brilliant scientific mind. However, the tranquility of his laboratory is shattered when a cutting-edge breakthrough in DNA sequencing goes spectacularly wrong. The experiment accidentally reactivates the dormant Buddy Love gene within the entire Klump household, transforming a quiet family dinner into a high-energy, ego-driven showdown of epic proportions.
Sherman is thrust into a race against time to develop a permanent suppressant for the smooth-talking, arrogant Buddy Love persona. This mission is no longer just about his own identity; he must save his entire kin, who are all rapidly transforming into their own slimmer, louder, and increasingly obnoxious versions of themselves. As the domestic chaos unfolds, the professor is forced to confront the reality that a thin physique is not the universal key to happiness, and that his true priority is preserving the integrity and bond of his family.
With Eddie Murphy returning to the screen to portray multiple iconic characters through his signature comedic genius, the film delivers a whirlwind of impressive prosthetics, hilarious slapstick humor, and genuine heart. It stands as a riotous celebration of self-love and authenticity, proving to audiences once again that while the flashy Buddy Love might possess the style, it is Sherman Klump who truly possesses the soul.
