Courtesy of Warner Bros. The “Crazy Rich Asians” TV series is moving forward at HBO, with four of the film’s stars returning.
Constance Wu, Henry Golding and Ronny Chieng have all signed on as series regulars in the one-hour original drama series, with Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh recurring. All four will reprise their respective roles from the hit 2018 film.
“It’s a ‘Crazy Rich’ family reunion! This series is the sequel we’ve been waiting for, but instead of just one movie, we get eight episodes to delve into the characters and worlds of Kevin Kwan’s brilliant books,” said Adele Lim, who co-wrote the 2018 film and has been set as showrunner and executive producer for the TV series. “Getting to work with the original creative team with the support and vision of HBO and Warner Bros. Television has been a dream. Our writers room is humming and we can’t wait to share what we’ve come up with.”
