Monster-in-Law 2 (2025)- Official Trailer | Jennifer Lopez, Jane Fonda, and Michael Vartan
The sequel to Monster-in-Law picks up nearly two decades after the events of the original film. Charlie (Jennifer Lopez) is now a successful career woman and happily married to Kevin (Michael Vartan). They have a teenage daughter, Sophie, who is planning her dream wedding. The twist? Sophie has chosen to marry into one of the most prominent families in California, which throws the Fields family back into chaos.
Viola Fields (Jane Fonda), now retired and struggling with boredom, sees Sophie’s wedding as the perfect opportunity to step back into her controlling ways. Determined to make it the “society event of the year,” Viola begins to clash with Sophie’s mother-in-law-to-be, a fiercely opinionated socialite played by a new cast addition. Meanwhile, Charlie tries to mediate the brewing feud while also dealing with her own fears of losing her daughter to adulthood.
As the wedding planning spirals into chaos, Viola and Charlie find themselves inadvertently teaming up to save the wedding from a series of comedic disasters. The film culminates in an emotional reconciliation as Viola finally learns to let go and trust her family, realizing the true meaning of love and connection.
With hilarious antics, heartfelt moments, and a surprise cameo from Wanda Sykes, Monster-in-Law 2 delivers both laughs and touching life lessons.
