How to Watch Father of the Bride Online From Anywhere

Father of the Bride will premiere soon on HBO Max, and we're looking forward to watching this romantic comedy reboot. The story has been adapted on screen before, so the name may sound familiar.

Directed by Vincente Minnelli, the 1950 film starred Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett, and Elizabeth Taylor in the lead roles. Then, in 1991, Steve Martin took on the father's role, alongside Diane Keaton, Kimberly Williams, Martin Short, BD Wong, and Kieran Culkin. Now, the comedy has an all-Latino cast, featuring Andy Garcia, Gloria Estefan, Adria Arjona, Isabela Merced, Diego Boneta, and Chloe Fineman. The story remains the same as we observe a father struggling to cope with the reality that his daughter is getting married.

The two parents - played by Garcia and Stefan - have their own issues as they're getting divorced. When the families of the bride and groom finally meet, things get even more complicated as the two families (one Cuban and one Mexican) have to learn to work together to make the wedding a success. 

Father of the Bride premieres exclusively on HBO Max on June 16, 2022, at 3 am ET. The PG-13 movie has a run time of 1 hour and 58 minutes.

How to Watch Father of the Bride Online From Anywhere

Watching content online is super easy nowadays, but if you travel abroad, you'll hit a wall because most streaming platforms are geo-blocked. If you want to bypass the blockades, that's perfectly doable, but you'll have to use a VPN to watch Father of the Bride from abroad. VPNs work by routing your Internet connection and spoofing your IP address, so you appear to be in a different location.

How to Watch Father of the Bride in the US

The Latin adaptation of Father of the Bride was developed by Warner Bros. Pictures. Since HBO Max is owned by Warner Bros Discovery, it's only natural that the movie would end up on this service. A subscription to this platform will cost you $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year for the ad-supported plan and $14.99 per month or $149.99 per year if you want to watch ad-free content.

For instance, you can get it as an add-on with your Hulu service, which will cost you an extra $14.99 per month (ad-free plan) on top of the regular $6.99 Hulu plan. However, you get to test the HBO Max plan for a week before you are charged for it. 

You can also get HBO Max with your YouTube TV plan as a Premium Add-On Network for $14.99 per month. Right now, YouTube TV will only cost $54.99 for the first 3 months before the price goes back up to $64.99 monthly.

DirecTV Stream also features HBO Max on its list of premium add-ons. It will cost you $14.99 per month, which goes on top of the DirecTV Stream subscription. The cheapest plan for DirecTV Stream costs $54.99 for the first 2 months and $69.99 monthly after.
