Residents have been excited about the latest celeb sighting in Hoboken’s W hotel – and for good reason. Some of Hollywood’s most beloved stars including Morris Chestnut, Regina Hall, Sanaa Lathan, and Nia Long might be in town filming the latest edition of The Best Man movie franchise – except this time, as a limited series show. Read on to learn more about the filming at the W Hotel in Hoboken and about the new film.
Now a three-film series, the original film, The Best Man debuted in 1999, the second, The Best Man Holiday in 2013, and now the third one has been picked up by Peacock in the form of a 10 episode show, The Best Man: The Final Chapters which is currently being filmed and likely means it will debut towards the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023.
Fans are most excited about the core stars returning for the new series and bringing closure to their characters that have captured viewers’ hearts for over a decade, as the movies become a large part of the culture.
