Shotgun Wedding

Editor - Doc Crotzer, ACE

SHOTGUN WEDDING editor Doc Crotzer ACE has plenty of experience cutting comedy, but most of that came from his ACE Eddie-nominated work on the hit tv series, GLEE.  Prior to SHOTGUN WEDDING, Doc's only real studio feature film experience was in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy film, CHAOS WALKING (2021); which didn't exactly afford him the opportunity to go for laughs.  That all changed with his sophomore feature film effort, the new action comedy SHOTGUN WEDDING.

SHOTGUN WEDDING sees soon-to-be newlyweds Darcy (Jennifer Lopez) and Tom (Josh Duhamel), along with their lovable but very opinionated families, gathering for the ultimate destination wedding.  Just when the couple starts to get cold feet, the wedding party is taken hostage; forcing them to work together to save their loved ones, provided they don't end up killing each other first.
