One of Focus Features’ 2023 divisive comedy movies has finally found a new streaming home on Peacock. During its theatrical run, the Greece-set romantic comedy film grossed around $38 million at the box office.
What charming 2023 movie is now on Peacock?
Beginning today, 2023’s romantic comedy My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 is now officially available to stream on Peacock. This marked the third installment of Nia Vardalos‘ iconic franchise, which also consisted of 2002’s My Big Fat Greek Wedding and 2016’s My Big Fat Greek Wedding. In the latest sequel, Vardalos not only reprised her Golden Globe-nominated role as Toula, but she also had the chance to direct the film.
“When Toula plans a trip to Greece to honor her late father Gus’ final wish, the family’s reunion becomes complicated with the reveal of a deep family secret,” reads the synopsis. “With non-stop laughter at every twist and turn, the highly anticipated third installment of the franchise brings a heartwarming reunion that honors the essence of what makes the original so unique.”
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 was written and directed by Vardalos, who also wrote the screenplays for the first two movies of the romantic comedy franchise. The ensemble cast also included John Corbett (Sex and the City), Louis Mandylor (Desperate Housewives), Elena Kampouris (My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2), Gia Carides (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), Joey Fatone (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), Maria Vacratsis (Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again), Elias Kacavas (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin), Lainie Kazan (Beaches), and Andrea Martin (Only Murders in the Building).
Unlike the first installment, the third movie didn’t impress the critics. Despite its 31% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it still managed to receive a higher Popcornmeter score at 71%. Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks also served as producers on all three movies of the franchise.
