Han Ki-chan cast as lead in American Hollywood film ‘The Wedding Banquet’ [Official]

Actor Han Ki-chan has been cast as the lead in the American Hollywood film ‘The Wedding Banquet’.

The film ‘The Wedding Banquet’, starring Han Ki-chan, is an American romantic comedy that deals with the slightly different loves and friendships of the main characters, and is a remake of the film of the same name by director Ang Lee. Korean-American film director and screenwriter Andrew Ahn, who directed Netflix‘s ‘Bridgerton Season 3’ and the films ‘Fire Island’ and ‘Driveways’, worked on the director and co-written the screenplay, and ‘Bleecker Street’, an independent American distributor, will be in charge of distribution. The film is scheduled to be released in the United States in April and then overseas sequentially.

Last year, Han Ki-chan took on the role of Korean exchange student ‘Min’, which was filmed entirely on location in Vancouver. It is said that he received rave reviews from the local staff for his perfect Korean and English lines.

Meanwhile, Han Ki-chan debuted through the web drama ‘Where Your Eyes Linger’. He is building up his filmography by appearing in dramas ‘Again My Life’, ‘Island’, ‘Treat Me Roughly’, and the movie ‘That Song’.
