Lenny Kravitz is a popular artist who has won the Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance four years in a row from 1999 to 2002. Cheech Marin is a stand-up comedian, actor, and voice artist with notable work in movies like The Lion King, Spy Kids, Pinocchio, Cars, Coco, and more. D’Arcy Carden's credits include The Good Place, Barry, Let It Snow, Bombshell, and others. Selena Tan was seen in Crazy Rich Asians; Desmin Borges' recent work was Amazon's Utopia, and Alex Mallari has recently wrapped the Netflix film The Adam Project.
Shotgun Wedding follows Grace and Tom as they gather their lovable but very opinionated families for the ultimate destination wedding just as the couple begins to get cold feet. And if that wasn’t enough of a threat to the celebration, suddenly everyone’s lives are in danger when the entire party is taken hostage. “Til Death Do Us Part” takes on a whole new meaning in this hilarious, adrenaline-fueled adventure as Darcy and Tom must save their loved ones — if they don’t kill each other first.
Jason Moore is directing the project while having a screenplay written by Mark Hammer and Liz Meriwether. Jennifer Coolidge (American Pie, Legally Blonde) and Sonia Baga (Sex and the City, Aquarius) are also part of the cast. The filming is expected to commence later this month. It might release in late 2021 or early 2022.
