With the 'Big Momma's House' franchise bringing in two box office hits, Martin Lawrence is donning a wig and makeup again to do a third film. Joining him in this venture is Brandon T. Jackson.

Variety states that 20th Century Fox will distribute the movie, and John Whitesell, who directed 'Big Momma's House 2,' will helm the threequel.

In the latest adventure, FBI agent Malcolm Turner and his 17-year-old nephew, Trent, go undercover at an all-girls performing arts school after Trent witnesses a murder. Posing as Big Momma and Charmaine, they must find the murderer before he finds them.

Released in 2000, 'Big Momma's House,' which also starred Nia Long, brought in a worldwide gross of $174 million. Its 2006 sequel, 'Big Momma's House 2,' tallied $138.3 million internationally.

Jackson is currently on the big screen, starring in Fox's 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief,' opposite Pierce Brosnan.

Lawrence's next film finds him starring alongside Chris Rock in 'Death At a Funeral.' That opens in April.

There's been no official word about whether Long will be joining the guys.
