"Funny and poignant in equal measure."—David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

"Had me belly laughing and full-body sobbing...In a time when half the country is trying to dictate what families can look like, The Wedding Banquet throws all of that out with its radical approach to love, connection, and joy."—Mey Rude, Out Magazine

"The best example of a resurgence of the romantic comedy...the feel-good movie of the year."—Bill Bria, SlashFilm


From Director Andrew Ahn (Fire Island) comes a joyful comedy of errors about a chosen family navigating cultural identity, queerness, and family expectations. Frustrated with his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris and running out of time, Min makes a proposal: a green-card marriage with their friend Angela in exchange for her partner Lee's expensive IVF. Elopement plans are upended, however, when Min's grandmother surprises them with an extravagant Korean wedding banquet. Starring Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Han Gi-chan, Joan Chen, and Youn Yuh-jung, The Wedding Banquet is a poignant and heartfelt reminder that being part of a family means learning to both accept and forgive.
