Hey, did you hear there’s a Mrs. Doubtfire sequel in the works Robin Williams is back with director Chris Columbus (not the explorer) to reprise the story of a guy who dresses like a lady to win his kids back, or something. It was 1993, who can remember?
The main difference this time around is that while Robin Williams may have to work at the “lady” part just as hard, the “old” will be a bit more natural. Anyway, there’s no working title yet, and because we’re so excited about this film, we thought we’d offer 35 possibilities to help the writers out. We’ll gladly give up the rights to any of these titles for a modest sum, or for just one hour of Robin Williams pelting us with fruit at the Paste office in Decatur.
