Peacock has released the trailer for The Best Man: The Final Chapters, which reunites the cast of the Best Man films for one last meta romp.


The official trailer of the series The Best Man: The Final Chapters has fallen. The series is a sequel to one of the more unusual long-running film series in recent history, which began with the 1999 film The best manhelped by Space Jam: A New Legacy and Girls trip director Malcolm D. Lee. The ensemble comedy followed an eventful night in the lives of a group of friends celebrating the bachelorette party of their mutual friend Lance Sullivan (Morris Chestnut).

The series may well be about making the movie The best manas the clip opens with Harper being approached by his agent and learning that his book Unfinished business is being filmed.


Can the Best Man series recapture the magic of the original movies?

This is not the first time that the Best man cast reunited after being apart for so much time, so it’s entirely possible for them to bring the same charm that captured the audience before. One thing that might be concerning, though, is whether their busy schedules allowed enough time for the ensemble to spend a lot of time together, rather than being mostly locked into their own episodes. This seems to be the approach of the show, given that there are eight episodes for eight characters.

In front of The Best Man: The Final Chapters to work, it must ensure that the chemistry between its cast can still shine. This was the biggest problem raised by fans with Netflix’s Arrested Development season 4, which mainly featured storylines in which the main characters were separated or brought together only by tricky editing and greenscreen. if The last chapters avoiding this trap, it could very well become some fans’ favorite comedy series of the year.
