Reboots and remakes are not things we normally love, if we loved the original. It feels as though we’re betraying something by watching it or taking away from the memories that were made around the original.
Father of the Bride is one of those movies. The original was just so important to us, but if we’re being honest, as more and more of the casting for the remake came out, we were okay with it.
Adria Arjona, Andy Garcia, Gloria Estefan, Diego Boneta, Chloe Fineman, and Casey Thomas Brown make an incredible cast.
The film had its premiere at the 2022 Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival this past weekend and in speaking to E! News, star Adria Arjona opened up about a message she got from the original star of Father of the Bride, Kimberly Williams-Paisley.
“She sent me a video the second that she found out I was going to be the bride saying, ‘I pass you the baton. I adore you. You’re gonna be amazing,’” Adria told the outlet.
That had to have made her happy. Definitely would have made us happy. For Adria, it was the moment that she realized that she really was starring in Father of The Bride.
“It was the first time that I realized, ‘Oh my god, I’m the bride in the Father of the Bride.’ So that was really special.” she had also told E!.
We can’t wait for Father of The Bride. The new movie premieres on HBO Max on June 16.
