Father of the Bride (2022, D: Alazraki) S: Garcia, Estefan, Arjona, Merced, Boneta




Billy (Andy Garcia) and Ingrid (Gloria Estefan) are surprised when their eldest daughter Sofia (Adria Arjona) comes home to Miami for a visit, announcing a new boyfriend, Adan (Diego Boneta)—who is now her fiancé—and their plans for a wedding and a new life together in Mexico. Family relationships are tested as the roller coaster ride of wedding planning races toward the altar. This sparkling story of a modern rom-com updated from a timeless classic illustrates the surprising and funny ways the heart can adapt in the name of love.

The ensemble cast includes: Andy García, Gloria Estefan, Adria Arjona, Isabela Merced, Diego Boneta, Enrique Murciano, Macarena Achaga, Chloe Fineman, and Ana Fabrega

Save the date for Father Of The Bride, streaming June 16 on HBO Max.

I was thinking "man did Isabella Merced change that much?" but I guess she's the sister? She's barely in the trailer if so for someone who's name is featured that prominently.

I liked the previous two versions and I'm glad that this is coming on streaming. I'll give it a watch.

I enjoyed the Disney versions with Martin and Kimberly Williams, but never saw the original classic version. Sure, I'll watch this one. I feel like Andy Garcia hasn't had a top billing role on a studio film in many years.

It'll be nice to see Chloe Fineman outside of SNL.

Forgot this was coming out until I saw an actually positive review of the film on The AV Club site, and I will be watching soon. I have not seen the original, but I did watch the Steve Martin films, and I think there was another remake after that but my memory is fuzzy on that one. If there was a Father of the Bride post Steve Martin films I know I have seen it.

I only saw the Martin-Williams ones and liked them, and this one was fine. Good cast (didn’t recognize Gloria Estefan until I remembered she was in it), looked good. I don’t really have a problem with the story being remade again considering it’s been so long and it has a different feel to it. I’m just not sure I needed to watch it.
