Jessica Williams (2 Dope Queens) will lead the cast of Hulu’s limited romantic comedy series Four Weddings and a Funeral Set to co-star in the project, written and executive produced by The Mindy Project creator, executive producer and star Mindy Kaling and executive producer Matt Warburton, are Nikesh Patel (Indian Summers), The Mindy Project alumna Rebecca Rittenhouse (Into the Dark: The Body) and John Reynolds (Search Party).

Inspired by the 1994 British romantic comedy film, Four Weddings and a Funeral centers on Jess (Williams), the young communications director for a New York senatorial campaign, who 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.

Patel plays Kash, Rittenhouse is Ainsley and Reynolds portrays Duffy.

Kaling and Warburton executive produce alongside Tracey Wigfield, Jonathan Prince, Howard Klein for 3 Arts and Charlie Grandy, Tristram Shapeero and Charles McDougall (Ep. 1 & 2). The series comes to Hulu from MGM Television and Universal Television, with MGM serving as the lead studio, and marks Kaling’s second original series with Hulu following The Mindy Project. It also is MGM TV’s second series there, joining The Handmaid’s Tale, and Universal TV’s third, following The Path and The Mindy Project. It’s expected to premiere in 2019 on Hulu.

Williams and fellow comedian Phoebe Robinson are behind the popular 2 Dope Queens podcast that features Williams and Robinson. HBO premiered four hour-long specials based on the podcast earlier this year and four more are scheduled for debut in 2019. Next up, Williams will be seen in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Patrick Brice’s comedy Corporate Animals opposite Sharon Stone and Ed Helms and in Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut Booksmart, alongside Jason Sudeikis, Lisa Kudrow and Will Forte.
