00:00 Hi, I'm Nia Vardalos.
00:01 "The Portacalas Family" is back in theaters on September 8th.
00:05 So, since the first film came out 21 years ago,
00:08 here's a quick refresher on what has happened so far
00:11 so you can get ready to see "My Big Factory Wedding 3."
00:14 My character, Tula, is a real cause of concern
00:17 for the rest of the family.
00:18 Why?
00:18 Because in the first movie,
00:20 my character is unmarried at 30 years old,
00:22 which is a pain point because even Windex can't fix this
00:26 for her traditional parents, Gus and Maria.
00:28 Tula works at Dancing Zorbas, their Greek restaurant,
00:31 but decides to take a job at her Aunt Bula's travel agency
00:34 where she meets and falls in love with Ian Miller,
00:38 a teacher who is tall and handsome
00:40 and definitely not Greek.
00:42 Tula, porky pocket?
00:44 Portacalas.
00:46 Call it.
00:48 Okay, Tula.
00:49 Ultimately, Tula finds the inner strength
00:52 to not only stand up for what she wants,
00:54 but also come out of her shell
00:55 and show her family who she truly is.
00:58 There are some bumps along the way,
00:59 but in the end, there's of course a wedding
01:02 and Ian and Tula get their happily ever after.
01:06 In "My Big Factory Wedding 2,"
01:07 I wrote about parenting and marriage
01:09 because you know what?
01:10 It's getting tougher for everybody.
01:12 Tula feels the pressure to be the fixer.
01:14 Their businesses have fallen on hard times
01:16 and their teenage daughter feels like Tula
01:18 is smothering her.
01:19 Paris is also rebelling against the traditional
01:23 Greek values of the family.
01:24 - Mom's needy, Papu wants to marry me off,
01:26 your ya constantly tells me to never ever let a boy
01:28 touch my pulaki.
01:29 This family.
01:31 - When the father, Gus's attempt to convince the family
01:33 he really is descended from Alexander the Great,
01:36 unearths a shocking truth.
01:39 He and Maria were never legally married.
01:41 The entire Portacalas clan is sent into chaos.
01:44 But then a hellscarer puts things back in perspective
01:47 and Maria and Gus and Tula and Ian renew their vows
01:50 before sending Paris off to college out of state.
01:54 What's to come in "My Big Factory Wedding 3?"
01:56 This time we're headed to the homeland.
