Netflix has shared first details for Groom and Two Brides, a romantic comedy about love, lies and a double engagement gone wrong—streaming worldwide on 7 November 2025. The film stars Abdullah Boushehri as Adam, who finds himself secretly engaged to two women: Yasmine (Laila Abdallah) and Sama (Lulwa Almulla). It’s directed by Elie Semaan, produced by Eagle Films, and written by Eyad Saleh.
The setup: one groom, two fiancées
Adam swears off commitment—then ends up engaged to two women at once. That’s the premise driving the mix of comedy and heart.
- Adam is a former romantic now in his “villain era”.
- He’s secretly engaged to Yasmine, his boss’s daughter and childhood friend.
- He also proposes to Sama, the adventurous ex who returns.
The first look frames Adam as a man hiding behind bravado after being burned by love. That front collapses when fate puts him between Yasmine—safe, familiar, and family-approved—and Sama—the spark that once pushed him away. The tension sits not just in who he chooses, but whether he can stop lying long enough to be the romantic he used to be.
Cast and characters
A tight core of leads is backed by best-friend energy on both sides.
- Abdullah Boushehri plays Adam.
- Laila Abdallah is Yasmine; Lulwa Almulla is Sama.
- Hamad Ashkanani plays Talal, Adam’s best mate.
- Sara Abi Kanaan plays Hala, Yasmine’s best friend.
Beyond the triangle, Talal and Hala add pressure and comic relief—the friends who know too much and say it anyway. Expect a lot of near-misses, quick lies, and “we need to talk” moments as the engagements start colliding.

From the team behind Honeymoonish, with Elie Semaan in the director’s chair and Eagle Films producing.
- Director: Elie Semaan.
- Producer: Jamal Sannan for Eagle Films.
