Photo GalleryHOLLYWOOD - Ashton Kutcher is set to recreate hit movie Wedding Crashers as a Candid Camera-type reality TV series, using real-life brides and grooms.
The actor's Katalyst Films production company has been looking for a way to crash weddings since before the 2005 comedy smash hit cinemas, and now he's using savvy he showed as the brains behind celebrity practical joke show Punk’d to invade nuptials.
The idea has been picked up by executives at NBC and the first six hour-long real-life wedding crashes are expected to air next year.
Kutcher and his co-producers will hire a team of actors, who will serve to confuse and amuse wedding guests at a series of selected ceremonies.
Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, who starred in the Wedding Crashers film, will not be involved in the TV series.
