Six years after directing Adam Sandler and Salma Hayek in 2013’s “Grown Ups”, American filmmaker Dennis Dugan is back on the silver screen with upcoming feature “Love, Weddings & Other Disasters”.

This first independent feature from Dennis Dugan will feature Jeremy Irons (“Die Hard with a Vengeance”, “Red Sparrow”), Diane Keaton (“Annie Hall”, “Marvin’s Room”, “The Godfather” trilogy), Diego Boneta (“Terminator: Dark Fate”), Veronica Ferres (“Berlin, I Love You”), Jesse McCartney (“Alvin and the Chipmunks”) and guitarist JinJoo Lee. The script was written by Dugan himself.

The Adrian Politowski- and Nadia Khamlichi-produced “Love, Weddings & Other Disasters” is a romantic comedy about wedding planners, who work behind the scenes to ensure that strangers’ big days go off without a hitch, while their own love lives are often eccentric, sometimes downright bizarre, and rarely perfect.

Production should get underway in Boston on Sept. 16. Fortitude will be shopping “Love, Weddings & Other Disasters” around to international buyers at the Toronto International Film Festival, which begins on Sept. 5. JB
