Crazy Rich Asians
“People look to cinema to spread the word and to tell these wonderful, outrageous stories or true-to-life documentaries. It’s such an important format for us to put our faces on and normalize."
Director Jon M. Chu said he and author Kevin Kwan turned down a massive Netflix offer to bring the film to the big screen.
The movie, she wrote, is expanding the idea of what a lead actor looks like.
"Crazy Rich Asians" and "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" will help make Asian-American women feel seen on the screen.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
The actor chats about intersectional representation and what he sees as the next big LGBTQ hurdle in Hollywood.
The “Crazy Rich Asians” trailer is here, and it shows a long-awaited majority-Asian cast.
We can't wait for the movie to be released in August.
"What are you going to tell me? Don’t represent me on TV because I don’t look like Chow Young Fat? Like f**k you, dude!"
"There is nothing shameful," the "Crazy Rich Asians" star said.
