Vince Vaughn’s Nonnas Trailer: Heartfelt Comedy Promises a Feast of Food, Family and Love (Exclusive)

The Netflix movie, also starring Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco and Joe Manganiello, streams on Friday, May 9

The trailer for Nonnas is here to whet your appetite.

PEOPLE has an exclusive look at the trailer for the upcoming comedy, which tells the true story of Joe Scaravella, played by Vince Vaughn, who honors his late mother by opening a restaurant bearing her name. The twist: he hires nonnas — or grandmothers — to work in the kitchen and make the kind of food he loved as a boy.

The trailer begins with Joe struggling to find his footing after his mother’s passing. While looking through her recipes, he comes to the realization that “food is love.”

Despite his best friend Bruno, played by Joe Manganiello, initially disapproving of the idea, Joe opens an Italian restaurant and hires four nonnas — Susan SarandonLorraine Bracco, Brenda Vaccaro, and Talia Shire — who make traditional dishes passed down through their families.

As the nonnas bond and bicker, they grow to understand that the restaurant is not just about food — it’s about forming a family. Because, as the trailer notes, the best memories are often served family-style.

Manganiello tells PEOPLE the cast even enjoyed family-style dinners while filming. “I would say on average four group 12-course meals per week,” he says.

“Vince and I would spend the mornings going to get coffee and talking, and then we’d spend the evenings kind of decompressing talking about what happened on set and what’s going on the next day. We’d just kind of walk around endlessly at night, walking off our lasagna,” he adds.

Also featured in the trailer for the film — cowritten by Liz Maccie and directed by her husband, Stephen Chbosky — are Drea de Matteo and Linda Cardellini.

“They were adorable,” Vaccaro says about her younger costars. “They were kind and sweet. I said to myself, ‘Oh, these guys are going to be with these old ladies.’ But they were just charming and delightful and kind, loving. They were really special.”

These strong relationships carry over into the film, which is set to be released on Mother’s Day weekend, serving as a reminder to cherish time with loved ones.

“Family coming together and sharing time with each other over food and that connection and that ability to just really enjoy each other is what it’s all about,” Maccie tells PEOPLE.  

She adds, “Family isn’t necessarily blood-related. Family is just a coming together of community and that we can literally make each other better by just being present with each other. And having lasagna in the middle doesn’t make it so bad either.”

Nonnas streams on Netflix on Friday, May 9.
