Dennis Quaid (In Good Company) will star in the remake of Yours, Mine and Ours for MGM and Paramount Pictures. Raja Gosnell ("Scooby-Doo" movies) is in talks to direct, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Quaid will play Frank Beardsley, Henry Fonda's role in the original 1968 comedy, which co-starred Lucille Ball. The update follows two single parents, one with 10 children and one with eight, who fall in love and elope but have to contend with the kids' attempts to sabotage their union.

MGM and Paramount are co-financing the feature in a single-pot deal, which will see MGM handle foreign distribution and oversee production, while Paramount will handle domestic distribution.

The film is being written by Ron Burch, David Kidd, Bob Hilgenberg and Rob Muir and produced by MGM-based Robert Simonds.

Love the original, don't mind a remake. It's been long enough and many of the stars have passed. Why not?

I just watched it. You obviously know pretty much the entire plot before you watch it, but there were a few parts that made me laugh. One thing that bothers me about these movies is why they always insist on having these enormous meals for breakfast. If you have 18 children, maybe you should pick a few simple items that everyone can have for breakfast. They probably had 15 different breakfast items on the table and enough food to feed 50 people. I think I would probably just stick to cereal if I was in that situation.
