CASTING FOR THE FOLLOWING ROLE:
[ LARRY ]
Marcus's biological dad, 60’s, Black. Larry is a no-frills kind of guy without a whiff of pretense. Unaware and unselfconscious to the extreme, Larry is apt to say anything to anybody. In fact, he's the antithesis of the well-healed Harold (Emily’s biological dad), Marcus's future father in-law. This stresses his son out at the worst time possible. You see, Marcus is trying to downplay his working-class background and impress his fiancée’s fancy hosts, only to be undermined again and again by Larry spouting off about his fits of flatulence in the car or the cost -- down to the penny -- of his wedding gift.
Storyline: Buttoned-up Marcus and his girlfriend Emily meet the crazily impulsive Ron and Kyla on a memorable, no-holds-barred vacation in Mexico. Unfortunately, what happens in Mexico definitely does not stay in Mexico. To Marcus and Emily's dismay, Ron and Kyla arrive as uninvited guests at Marcus and Emily's lavish wedding weekend. Marcus is already struggling to gain acceptance from his snooty and disapproving father-in-law, Harold. But when Ron and Kyla cause one catastrophe after the next, the nuptials may well be permanently postponed...
