Go! To the Movies
In 2002, audiences were introduced to the Portokalos family.
The loud, loving, Windex using, Greek family that surrounded Toula Portokalos (Nia Vardalos) everywhere she went even while trying to pursue her future husband, Ian Miller (John Corbett).
Well, now the family is back 14 years later for another “Big Fat Greek Wedding,” with a twist.
While trying to plan a huge wedding, both Toula and Ian are trying to rekindle their relationship and deal with watching their daughter, Paris (Elena Kampouris) grow-up in front of them and prepare to leave for college.
Even though a lot of time has passed since the orginal film, the majority of the cast made it back for the sequel.
Some were very easy to convince to make the return.
“I called John and said, ‘Hey, do you feel like kissing me again?” Vardalos said in an interview with PEOPLE. “And he said the ultimate dreamy response — ‘always baby.'”
The film opens this weekend and is rated PG-13 for some suggestive material.
