'The Wedding Banquet' Trailer Released with Star Cast

Andrew Ahn's upcoming film, 'The Wedding Banquet', is a reimagining of Ang Lee's 1993 classic, featuring a star-studded cast including Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, and Han Gi-chan. The plot revolves around two queer couples, Angela and Lee, who are struggling with costly IVF treatments, and Min and Chris, facing visa and familial acceptance issues. Min proposes a green card marriage to Angela in exchange for funding her IVF, but their quiet plans unravel when Min's grandmother insists on an extravagant wedding. The film explores themes of family, identity, and cultural expectations with humor and heart. The screenplay is co-written by James Schamus, who also worked on the original, and the film is set to premiere on April 18th after its debut at Sundance.
