The trailer for The Wedding Banquet introduces queer two couples — Chris (Yang) & Min (Han Gi-chan) and Angela (Tran) and Lee (Gladstone) — who are live under one roof. Needing a green card to stay in the United States, Min proposes to Angela despite still being in a relationship with Chris. Things then take a turn when Min’s grandmother decides to pay them all a visit and attend Min and Angela’s wedding.
“Angela and her partner Lee have been unlucky with their IVF treatments, but can’t afford to pay for another round,” a description of the movie reads. “Meanwhile, their friend Min, the closeted scion of a multinational corporate empire, has plenty of family money but a soon-to-expire student visa. When his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris rejects his proposal, Min makes the offer to Angela instead: a green card marriage in exchange for funding Lee’s IVF. But their plans to quietly elope are upended when Min’s skeptical grandmother flies in from Korea unannounced, insisting on an all-out wedding extravaganza.”
The cast of The Wedding Banquet also includes Joan Chen and Youn Yuh-jung.
The original Wedding Banquet movie was released in 1993. Directed by Ang Lee, it stars Winston Chao, May Chin, Mitchell Lichtenstein, Gua Ah-leh, Lung Sihung, and more.
