Marlon Wayans to perform all six roles in new film ‘Sextuplets’

Actor / comedian Marlon Wayans (“I’m Gonna Git You Sucka,“ “Scary Movie,“ “Scary Movie 2,“ “White Chicks,”) will be starring in the new Netflix film, “Sextuplets,” a story about Alan – played by Wayans – a man embarking on a personal journey to meet his birth mother before the arrival of his first child. When Alan meets his brother, Russell, he discovers that he was born a sextuplet and decides to seek out his four other siblings  – all played by Wayans. Together, the two brothers set out on a road trip to track down the rest of the family that they’ve never known;  and Alan quickly realizes he may have gotten more than he bargained for.

Netflix quoted Wayans as saying, “Excited to be in business with Netflix on yet another project. I love how they embrace comedy and diversity. I am looking forward to doing the thing I love most… comedy.”

Rick Alverez, who will be producing “Sextuplets” along with Wayan and Nathan Reimann, said , “Ever since we received the script from Nathan Reimann, Marlon and I have considered this movie a labor of love. Couldn’t be happier to team up once again with Mike Tiddes (“Sextuplets” director) and Netflix.”

Alvarez collaborated with Wayans on the previous Netflix project, “Naked,” which was also directed by Tiddes.

Deadline.com reported that “Sextuplets” will be reuniting Wayans with “Marlon” TV series star Bresha Webb.

Principal photography for “Sextuplets” is scheduled to begin in September in Atlanta. Netflix will be releasing the film globally in 2019.
