Remake of Ang Lee's 1993 original.
One of the DVDs seen in the women's home is the movie "Certain Women," which stars Lily Gladstone.
When a character references the Star Wars franchise, Angela (Kelly Marie Tran) is unaware of the reference, despite being played by an actor who appeared in two of the Star Wars sequels, The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker.
During a January 2025 interview of Andrew Ahn, Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Han Gi-chan, Joan Chen, and Youn Yuh-jung conducted by Jay Jurden at the Sundance Film Festival (to promote the remake of The Wedding Banquet), Joan Chen said that decades earlier, just after she first arrived in the U.S., she had met with Ang Lee and agreed to play the lead role of Wei-Wei in the original film The Wedding Banquet. However, his funding soon fell through, and by the time he was able to gather new financial backing in the early 1990s, Joan Chen was no longer available to be in the movie.
First English speaking movie and role for Han Gi-chan.
