One of my favorite groups. Rest In Peace
 
Reitman produced the 1988 movie Twins, which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger as Julius Benedict and Danny DeVito as Vincent Benedict. Reitman was going to produce a sequel called Triplets, in which Julius and Vincent discover a third sibling (played by Tracy Morgan). Filming was supposed to start this month in Boston.

So.......who will replace Reitman?
