Welcome to Asia, b*tches! We’ve waited so long for this! Jon M. Chu adapts the Best-Seller CRAZY RICH ASIANS from Kevin Kwan and this new Trailer looks positively juicy. We want everything to go wrong or else why the hell watch?

Synopsis:
Rachel Chu (Constance Wu), an American-born Chinese economics professor, realizes her current boyfriend, Nick (Henry Golding), is one of the most desired unmarried men in his home city of Singapore and probably the rest of Asia.

She discovers this, and that fact that her boyfriend comes from an insanely wealthy family, when she heads with Nick to the wedding of his best friend. She also learns that nearly every unattached woman in his class of society is after him and are ready to take out Rachel by any means necessary.

Minka Kelly (Friday Night Lights) and Alan Ritchson (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) are back in Toronto to work on the Series, the former playing Dawn Granger/Dove and the latter playing Hank Hall/Hawk.

Flying-in together, both stars who looked remarkably-fresh after a five-hour flight, were gracious stopping for Selfies while walking to their vehicles.

The Series will stream on DC Comics‘ upcoming as-yet unnamed streaming service. Titans wraps mid-May.

The Orchard x Mr. Will want to give Readers a chance to win Run-of-Engagement Passes to see KINGS starring Daniel Craig and Halle Berry.

Synopsis:
Set against a backdrop of rising tensions in Los Angeles during the Rodney King trial in 1992, writer-director Deniz Gamze Ergüven‘s KINGS, stars Oscar winner Halle Berry and Daniel Craig as citizens of the same South Central neighbourhood.

MILLIE (Halle Berry) is a hardworking, tough and protective single mother with an affection for homeless children. She already has eight children living in her house and will soon bring home another. Her neighbor OBIE (Daniel Craig) is the local loose cannon, and the only white man in an area largely inhabited by African Americans, Latinos, and Koreans. With racial tensions running dangerously high, Millie and Obie would appear to be unlikely allies. Yet following the acquittal of four of the officers accused of beating Rodney King, these two must navigate the gathering chaos in the city to bring Millie‘s kids home safely.

Though KINGS doesn’t focus on the LA riots overall, it does delve into the impact and the fragility of family units during these circumstances. As the current social and political climate begins to mirror the turmoil and tensions of the past, the events depicted in Kings are, sadly, only more resonant today.

Somewhat in the same vein as hits Be Alright and Into You from her Dangerous Woman Disc, with a bit of ’90s House Music meshed with current Pop sensibility and finished of course that signature emotional quiver in her voice.
