Constance Wu teases ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ Tv show: ‘More film stars returning’

Fans of Crazy Rich Asians have something exciting to look forward to, as Constance Wu has shared new details about the upcoming series and its familiar faces.

The 44-year-old actress opened up about the upcoming HBO sequel series during an interview with PEOPLE at the opening night of A Few Good Men in New York City.

In October, HBO confirmed that the Fresh of the Boat actress, Henry Golding and Ronny Chieng would once again play their respective characters as regular cast members, with Michelle Yeoh making a recurring appearance in the eight episode show.

Although HBO has not announced any additional casting details, Constance teased that the series will feature more recognizable characters from the original film, sharing, “I’ve read some scripts, and some of the other characters are definitely in those scripts.”

“They’re not series regulars, so they might not be in every episode, but the ones I’ve read, they are in there,” she further revealed. “So I think fans will be very excited about that. It’ll be kind of a fun treat every time you find out, ‘Oh, this person’s gonna be in it and this person’s gonna be in it.’ So I’m excited.”

Serving as a follow-up to the 2018 hit film, the HBO series builds on the world introduced in Kevin Kwan’s bestselling book Crazy Rich Asians.

In the film, Constance played an American professor who discovers that her boyfriend, portrayed by Henry, belongs to one of Singapore’s wealthiest families.
