Glen added that he and Sweeney “make each other laugh,” noting, “She’s awesome, obviously one of the most talented actresses we have. This movie has felt like a rom-com in itself because Sydney is very easy to pretend-fall in love with.”

Their motive? To avert the pressure from Bea’s parents (played by Rachel Griffiths and Dermot Mulroney), pushing her to reconcile with her ex, Jonathan (Darren Barnet). Meanwhile, Ben has a personal mission: winning back his ex, Margaret, who left his heart crushed.
This entertaining tale draws inspiration from William Shakespeare’s 1600 comedy Much Ado About Nothing, with Ben and Bea’s amusing bickering mirroring the journey of Benedick and Beatrice.
