First poster and trailer for Crazy Rich Asians

April 23, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Warner Bros. has debuted a new poster and trailer for the upcoming romantic comedy Crazy Rich Asians. Directed by Jon M. Chu, the film is based on Kevin Kwan’s 2013 novel of the same name and stars Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Gemma Chan, Lisa Lu, Awkwafina, Harry Shum Jr.,  Ken Jeong, and Michelle Yeoh; check them out here…

New Yorker Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) receives an invitation from her boyfriend Nick Young (Henry Golding) to his best friend’s wedding in Singapore. Excited about visiting Asia for the first time but nervous about meeting Nick’s family, Rachel is unprepared to learn that Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life…

It turns out that he is not only the scion of one of the country’s wealthiest families but also one of its most sought-after bachelors. Being on Nick’s arm puts a target on Rachel’s back, with jealous socialites and, worse, Nick’s own disapproving mother (Michelle Yeoh) taking aim. And it soon becomes clear that while money can’t buy love, it can definitely complicate things.

Crazy Rich Asians is set for release on August 17th and features a cast that also includes Sonoya Mizuno, Chris Pang, Jimmy O. Yang, Ronny Chieng, Remi Hii, Nico Santos, and Jing Lusi.
