Nearly 12 years after the indie comedy My Big Fat Greek Wedding made waves at the box office, stars Nia Vardalos and John Corbett will reprise their roles for a sequel.

Nia Vardalos wrote the script for the follow-up, which centers on a new wedding that brings this big family together again, along with the revelation of a family secret.
