See the films the platforms disagree about most →The world's most famous actress, Lara Tyler, plans to marry her novelist fiancé on a remote Scottish island to escape the paparazzi. When the press discovers the location, a desperate publicist concocts a plan: they will use a local woman, Katie, as a decoy bride to distract the media. The scheme goes awry when the journalist Katie has a crush on arrives to cover the fake wedding, and the novelist accidentally ends up marrying the wrong woman, leading to a chaotic and comedic case of mistaken identity.
