This is Lily Gladstone‘s world and we’re only living it — and we’re not complaining. The Killers of the Flower Moon star and Academy Award nominee has been attached to another exciting project. This time, she’ll star in The Wedding Banquet, a remake from the 1993 romantic comedy that was produced by none other than Ang Lee (Gemini Man). Gladstone will lead the cast along with Bowen Yang (Saturday Night Live), and the remake will be directed by Andrew Ahn (Fire Island).
Gladstone and Yang will be joined by some other popular faces. The cast of The Wedding Banquet remake will also feature Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars), who will play Gladstone’s romantic partner, as well as Joan Chen (A Murder at the End of the World) and Academy Award winner Yuh-jung Youn (Minari) in important roles. The cast is already a pretty hefty one, but additional names are yet to be announced by Bleecker Street and ShivHans Pictures — the production companies that co-acquired the rights of the original movie. Filming is set to begin next month in Vancouver, and the movie is expected to be released in 2025.
There is currently no release date for The Wedding Banquet. Gladstone’s Killers of the Flower Moon is streaming on Apple TV+ now.
