A household name and pure comedy gold, Eddie Murphy is sure to shine as the over-protective, near-impossible-to-impress father, hell-bent on scrutinizing any potential suitors interested in marrying his daughter, none more so than Ezra. Eddie Murphy's filmography is lengthier than The Amazon (as in the river, not the mega-corporation). As well as b...
Ezra's life takes on fulfillment and meaning when he meets and falls in love with Amira but then abruptly gets brought back down to earth when marriage is on the cards, and it becomes clear that winning over her parents is a mighty tall order. Jonah Hill is most known for his roles in comedies such as Superbad, 21 & 22 Jump Street,This Is The End, ...
Amira's life gets upended when she falls for Ezra, after he hops onto the backseat of her car, having mistaken her for an Uber driver. Fast-forward to further down the relationship timeline and things get awkward when it is time to meet the parents. Cue tear-inducing belly laughs. Lauren London is well known for TV roles such as True Story and Game...
Fatima is Amira's no-nonsense, unimpressionable mother who, like every mom, would love her daughter to marry gold... but white? Now that is a different story. Using comedy to highlight racial misconceptions in America, there are some ticklishly inept moments in store when Amira's Black Muslim parents meet their white Jewish counterparts. Nia Long i...
Arnold is the totally inappropriate but well-meaning dad: a barrel of laughs in his own right. From making viewers cringe when he gives the seal of approval on his son's attractive, new girlfriend with a congratulatory wink and a thumbs-up, to his naive attempts at showing his "cultural awareness", he is continually tripping himself up. David Ducho...
Shelley is the Jewish-American mom, who is comically over-zealous about welcoming her son's new love to the family, but ends up being a source of inescapable embarrassment to Ezra with her obvious inability to keep a lid on all of her microaggressions. Julia Louis-Dreyfus made a name for herself on TV playing Elaine in the hit 90s comedy Seinfeld, ...
Mo is Ezra's witty, straight-talking best friend and the only guide he really has when it comes to navigating his relationship with Amira's parents. Sam offers some funny home truths to Ezra, with her blunt snippets of advice into cross-cultural dating hopefully helping keep her clueless pal afloat long enough for him to make it to the altar. Sam J...
Not much is known so far about Bubby's character in You People, but we would hazard a guess she will prove to be -- as always -- a highly-watchable cog in the comedy machine. Will she help Ezra make a good impression or throw more spanners in the works? Let us stick a pin in that, shall we? Rhea Perlman is a household name in TV acting. Nominated f...
