Achaga is the latest to join the film, which is set to be directed by Gaz Alazraki and with a script written by Matt Lopez. The film will revolve around a Cuban-American family, with a father coming to grips with his daughter’s upcoming wedding through the prism of multiple relationships within a big, sprawling Cuban-American family.
According to the report, the film will be more of a rom-com than previous versions of the film. It’ll also be more in the vein of the original Spencer Tracy film rather than the Steve Martin-led version.
