Bowen Yang and Lily Gladstone help plan a sham wedding in the first trailer for “The Wedding Banquet,” a modern retelling of Ang Lee’s 1993 queer comedy of errors.
Set in Seattle, “The Wedding Banquet” follows Angela (Kelly Marie Tran) and her girlfriend, Lee (Gladstone), who are trying to have a baby through IVF but can’t afford to pay for another round of fertility treatment. Meanwhile their friend Min (Han Gi-chan), a closeted scion of a multinational empire, has a student visa that’s about to expire. When his boyfriend Chris (Yang) rejects his marriage proposal for various reasons, he pops the question to Angela instead. From there, a wedding plot is hatched: a green card marriage in exchange for funding Lee’s IVF. But their plans to quietly elope are upended when Min’s grandmother (“Minari” Oscar winner Youn Yuh-jung) flies in from Korea to meet her future...
