Shotgun Wedding follows Darcy and Tom as they have gathered 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. The movie will be co-produced by Mandeville’s Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman. James Myers and Scott O’Brien are overseeing the production for Lionsgate. The filming is expected to commence later this month.
