The Wedding Banquet15

Directed by Andrew Ahn | USA | 2025 | 1h 43m | Starring Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Joan Chen, Youn Yuh-jung

In a bid to stay in the country, a gay man strikes a deal with his lesbian best friend: he’ll fund her costly IVF treatment if she marries him for a green card. But their plan takes an unexpected turn when his grandmother announces her arrival, along with elaborate plans for a traditional Korean wedding. Directed by Andrew Ahn, this vibrant comedy of errors reimagines Ang Lee’s 1993 classic as a modern celebration of chosen family, cultural identity, and the beautiful chaos of queer love and family expectations.
