Lenny Kravitz has just joined the cast of

Shotgun Wedding

, a romantic action comedy produced by Lionsgate and written by Mark Hammer and Liz Meriwether with Jennifer Lopez.

According to the Deadline, the rocker will play Sean, the globe-trotting ex-boyfriend of Grace, the character of the Bomba Latina, who is about to marry Tom, himself played by Josh Duhamel.

Side frame, the bride and groom are preparing to say yes in a heavenly place but they are in the grip of doubt.

It is then that a hostage-taking will spice up the wedding cake and leave the couple one last time for reflection.

This will be Lenny Kravitz's first film appearance since

Hunger Games: The Blaze

released in 2013.

Off the cuff

“We know Josh and Jennifer will be a fascinating and sexy onscreen couple and that they will be fun partners as their dream wedding turns into a nightmare to remember,” said Erin Westerman, President of Production for Lionsgate , while Josh Duhamel had just joined the cast.

Indeed, the star of

Transformers

agreed to replace Armie Hammer at short notice.

Caught in a sex scandal, the actor quit all his current projects after one of his ex-mistresses broadcasts messages that she attributes to him and in which he mentions cannibalistic fantasies.

The shooting of

Shotgun Wedding

is scheduled to begin at the end of the month in the Dominican Republic.
