Ariana Grande Faces De Niro's Lie Detector in First Look at Focker-in-Law Pop superstar Ariana Grande makes her Focker franchise debut as Olivia, the girlfriend of Greg Focker's son, in the upcoming comedy Focker-in-Law. The trailer reveals Grande's character undergoing a polygraph test administered by Robert De Niro's Jack Byrnes, and hints at her surprising FBI training and a comedic rivalry with Ben Stiller's Greg Focker. The beloved Focker franchise is expanding with its fourth installment, Focker-in-Law, set to hit theaters this November. This new chapter sees the return of familiar faces and the introduction of a prominent new character, portrayed by pop superstar Ariana Grande. Grande steps into the role of Olivia, the girlfriend of Greg Focker's son, Henry, played by Skylar Gisondo. The trailer offers a hilarious glimpse into Olivia's integration into the eccentric Focker family, which immediately includes an interrogation by the patriarch, Jack Byrnes. Robert De Niro reprises his iconic role, subjecting Olivia to a polygraph test, a scene that humorously mirrors Grande's own experience in a promotional video with her Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo. Jack Byrnes, ever the suspicious father-in-law, declares his intention to test all potential new family members with his trusty machine. Further adding to the comedic tension, Olivia reveals a surprising background: she's a trained FBI hostage negotiator. Her stated intention is to use her formidable skills to liberate her boyfriend, Henry, from what she perceives as a codependent relationship with his father, Greg. Ben Stiller returns as Greg Focker, whose anxieties are palpable. He expresses concern for his son's innocence, fearing Olivia's manipulative abilities. This animosity between Olivia and Greg is showcased in a competitive bike race where Greg resorts to unsportsmanlike tactics to win, further solidifying his unease. Despite Greg's apprehension, the trailer suggests that Olivia endears herself to the rest of the family, even managing to win over their discerning dog. The film promises to deliver the signature humor and chaotic family dynamics that have made the Focker series a hit. The cast of Focker-in-Law boasts a mix of returning veterans and fresh talent. Skylar Gisondo, who plays Henry, will be reuniting with his Booksmart castmates Beanie Feldstein and Eduardo Franco, adding another layer of comedic chemistry. The film also features the comedic prowess of Owen Wilson, along with the continued presence of Blythe Danner and Teri Polo. During CinemaCon, where the film's promotion was in full swing, Ben Stiller playfully commented on his evolving role within the franchise, suggesting he is the new De Niro, a remark met with amusement. Robert De Niro himself lauded Grande's performance, calling her “probably the single funniest scene partner I’ve ever been lucky enough to share the screen with,” a glowing endorsement that hints at the standout performance Grande will deliver. The anticipation for Focker-in-Law is high, promising a laugh-out-loud addition to the Focker saga
