Crazy Rich Asians
(L-R) HENRY GOLDING, CONSTANCE WU, SONOYA MIZUNO
The first full-length trailer for “Crazy Rich Asians” arrived in style on Monday.
The footage opens as Rachel Chu’s (Constance Wu) boyfriend Nick, played by Henry Golding, invites her to a wedding in Singapore to meet his family.
“We’ve been dating for over a year now, and I think it’s about time people met my beautiful girlfriend,” he says.
When she arrives, she finds out his family is “crazy rich.” She is suddenly thrown into Nick’s glamorous lifestyle, attempting to impress his classy relatives.
“You really should have told me you’re like the Prince William of Asia,” Wu’s character says. “That’s ridiculous,” Golding’s responds. “I’m much more of a Harry.”
The film, based on Kevin Kwan’s 2013 novel, also stars Gemma Chan, Ken Jeong, and Awkwafina. Jon M. Chu is directing from a screenplay by Peter Chiarelli and Adele Lim.
“Crazy Rich Asians” hits theaters Aug. 17. Watch the trailer below.
