Jennifer Coolidge takes the cake in the new Shotgun Wedding trailer

The star-studded rom-com premieres exclusively on Prime Video this month.


Prime Video just released an explosive new trailer for forced marriage, a bombastic new romantic comedy that takes wedding fever to another level. The film premieres on Prime Video on January 27th and may be the perfect screening for a Valentine’s day spent in the cozy comfort of your living room sofa.


forced marriage tells the story of Darcy, played by Jennifer Lopezand Tom, played by Josh Duhamel, an engaged couple gathering their family and friends for the ultimate destination wedding. But just as the wedding begins, the couple gets cold feet. And as if that wasn’t enough, the event is soon disrupted when the entire party is taken hostage. The couple’s commitment and teamwork will soon be tested in this action-packed adventure as Tom and Darcy must try to save their loved ones if they don’t kill each other first.

The new trailer gives us a glimpse of the chaos to come and showcases a particularly stacked cast of comedic talent, including the legendary Jennifer Coolidgewho is fresh from winning a Golden Globe for her role as Tanya in The White Lotus. The trailer showcases the hilarious family dysfunction at the heart of the film, including a rendition of Edwin McCain‘s classic 1990s love song “I’ll Be”, aptly interpreted by Coolidge, who plays Tom’s eccentric mother.
