Jennifer Lopez and Josh Duhamel’s romantic comedy, “Shotgun Wedding,” will finally arrive on the big screen next summer.
The film, owned by Lionsgate, is scheduled to premiere on June 29, 2022, according to Today.
Darcy, played by Lopez, and Tom, Duhamel’s character, bring their families together for a destination wedding. While the couple gets anxious about the wedding, the entire wedding party is taken hostage.
Lopez also shared the official announcement to her Instagram page. The caption read, “Big news! @ShotgunWeddingMovie hits theaters June 29, 2022! We cannot wait for you to see this movie 💛🤍 🏝 📸: @lacarba."
In February, it was announced that the Duhamel would co-star alongside Lopez in the action-comedy following Armie Hammer’s exit from the project last month.

Hammer dropped out of the production after social media messages of his were leaked online. The alleged messages were sexually explicit and included cannibal fantasies.
“I’m not responding to these bull**** claims but in light of the vicious and spurious online attacks against me, I cannot in good conscience now leave my children for 4 months to shoot a film in the Dominican Republic. Lionsgate is supporting me in this and I’m grateful to them for that,” Hammer previously said in a statement.
In addition to “Shotgun Wedding,” Hammer has also dropped out of the upcoming Paramount+ series, “The Offer.”
