The Best Man franchise began in 1999, following the story of a group of old friends as they navigate the days before Lance Sullivan (Morris Chestnut) ties the knot with Mia Morgan (Monica Calhoun). As everyone can agree, the best way to enjoy a franchise is to watch it in order, although some still debate if chronological order is better than release order.

Luckily, when it comes to The Best Man, there’s no debate needed, since it’s a very straightforward watch.

The Best Man watch order

  • The Best Man (1999) – Stream on Peacock
  • The Best Man Holiday (2013) – Stream on Peacock
  • The Best Man: The Final Chapters series (2022) – Stream on Peacock

It’s worth noting that a third movie, titled The Best Man Wedding, was at some point in the works, and planned to be released in 2016. Unfortunately, though, the film never made it to the production stage, due to conflicts with director Malcolm D. Lee’s schedule.

At this point, it’s unlikely that the movie will ever grace our screens, so fans of the franchise have to comfort themselves with the limited series, which wraps up this group of friends’ story.
