Jotham Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) Quote The beloved romantic comedy "Crazy Rich Asians" is being developed as a Broadway musical by director Jon M. Chu, who helmed the 2018 film of the same name. Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures and the book's author Kevin Kwan are backing the musical endeavor. "Crazy Rich Asians" will mark the Broadway debut of Chu, who has become Hollywood's go-to filmmaker to bring stage shows to the big screen. He's currently working on Universal's two-part "Wicked" adaptation and previously directed the cinematic version of Lin-Manuel Miranda's "In the Heights.” A news release described "Crazy Rich Asians" as "a fun, engaging and hilarious look at what can happen when young love collides with old money.” Like the movie, the musical is based on Kevin Kwan's book about a Chinese American professor named Rachel, who travels to Singapore with her boyfriend Nick and finds out that his family is crazy rich.

fridayteenage Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 1 hour ago, ALittleGauche said: Ok but where is China Rich Girlfriend a confusing thing is that, for the real lead of the 2nd book Astrid, a) she already left Michael at the end of the first film, but that doesn't happen until the climax of the second book b) they're supposedly working on an Astrid spinoff film, so does that mean the theoretical second film in the main series is just about Rachel's not-very-interesting story from the 2nd book? (there's also Kitty's storyline, but she barely showed up in the first film) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
