'Four Weddings and A Funeral' trailer features diverse cast

HULU
The reconceived 'Four Weddings and A Funeral' will have a more diverse cast than the original movie.

If the trailer is any indication, the 12-episode series on the streaming service will be just as charming -- filled with beautiful, witty and flawed characters -- as the original movie starring Andy McDowell and Hugh Grant.

Hulu released the first trailer Monday (July 1)  for the Four Weddings and A Funeral remake produced and written by Mindy Kaling.

The Andy McDowell role -- with appropriate name changes -- will be filled by Nathalie Emmanel, who is best known for her roles as Missandei on HBO’s hit fantasy series Game Of Thrones and as Ramsey in the popular Fast and the Furious franchise.

The Hugh Grant role will be played by Nikesh Patel, a relative newcomer with roles in Halal Daddy and London Has Fallen.


In the limited romantic comedy series, Maya (Emmanuel), the young communications director for a New York senatorial campaign, receives a wedding invitation from her college schoolmate now living in London. She leaves her professional and personal life behind, in favor of traveling to England and reconnecting with old friends and ends up in the midst of their personal crises. Relationships are forged and broken, political scandals exposed, London social life lampooned, love affairs ignited and doused, and of course there are four weddings – and a funeral.

The 12-episode series will debut on July 31 on Hulu.
