LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Similar to the documentary, the television show would center on the true story of the identical triplets Bobby Shafran, David Kellman, and Eddy Galland, who were split up at birth before being reunited years later. The three adult brothers will be portrayed by Ben Stiller. The sitcom is helmed by Amy Lippman and produced by Sony Pictures Television, SK Global, and TriStar Television.

This role would mark a rare television appearance for Stiller and will be one of his first major acting roles in several years. He has made cameo appearances in films like 'Hubie Halloween' and 'Bros' of late, and in the 2021 film 'Locked Down'. His last starring role was in the film 'The Meyerowitz Stories' in 2017.
