Hulu announced that Jessica Williams, Nikesh Patel, Rebecca Rittenhouse and John Reynolds have been cast in the upcoming limited romantic comedy series Four Weddings and a Funeral. Jessica Williams (2 Dope Queens), Nikesh Patel (Indian Summers), Rebecca Rittenhouse (Blood & Oil) and John Reynolds (Search Party) have been cast in Hulu's upcoming original limited romantic comedy series Four Weddings and a Funeral. Jessica Williams has been cast as "Jess," Nikesh Patel has been cast as "Kash," Rebecca Rittenhouse has been cast as "Ainsley" and John Reynolds has been cast as "Duffy."
In the comedy, Jess (Jessica Williams), the young communications director for a New York senatorial campaign, receives a wedding invitation from her college schoolmate now living in London. She leaves her professional and personal life behind, in favor of traveling to England and reconnecting with old friends and ends up in the midst of their personal crises. Relationships are forged and broken, political scandals exposed, London social life lampooned, love affairs ignited and doused, and of course there are four weddings... and a funeral. Four Weddings and a Funeral is expected to debut in 2019 on Hulu.
