The series will catch up with the group of friends from the films as their relationships evolve and past grievances resurface while they negotiate mid-life with varying degrees of success.
“Here we go! The band is back together!” Lee said. “I am very excited to bring these iconic characters back to the fans who have supported us through this franchise.
“We are thrilled to deliver everything one would expect from this group of friends in The Best Man universe and take them through their final chapters. We can’t wait! I told you it wouldn’t be 14 more years.”
