For his remake of Ang Lee's 1993 romantic comedy, director Andrew Ahn put an even queerer spin on The Wedding Banquet. Kelly Marie Tran, Lily Gladstone, Han Gi-chan, and Bowen Yang star as a two couples living together. Tran and Gladstone's Angela and Lee are trying to have a child while Gi-chan's Min is being asked by his grandmother (Youn Yuh-jung) to return home to Korea, which would mean leaving his boyfriend (Yang) behind.

Lee's poignant exploration of the comedic chaos at a wedding banquet reveals the profound tension between social conventions and personal desires.
