Nick Reiner will appear in court for his arraignment on Wednesday. He faces murder charges for the deaths of his parents.
His parents were famed Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Reiner. The couple was found stabbed to death in their home last month.
An arraignment is a formal court hearing. During it, a defendant hears the charges and enters a plea of guilty or not guilty.
The case has drawn intense media attention due to Rob Reiner's celebrity status. He is known for directing films like "The Princess Bride" and "When Harry Met Sally."
Authorities have not released a possible motive for the attacks. The court proceeding is the next step in the legal process.
