Crazy Rich Asians 2 Is Finally Happening; Plot Hints, Twists & What’s Next

The Crazy Rich Asians sequel is officially happening—but this time, it’s being made as a TV series, not a movie.

Henry Golding confirmed the news at a special screening, exciting longtime fans.

Director Jon M. Chu returns and revealed the story will unfold in an episodic format.

Adele Lim, co-writer of the original, is now the showrunner, promising a strong creative vision.

The plot draws from Kevin Kwan’s books China Rich Girlfriend and Rich People Problems.

The story will follow Rachel’s journey to reconnect with her father in China, adding new emotional depth.

Fan favorites Constance Wu, Henry Golding, and Michelle Yeoh will reprise their roles.

Production kicks off this year after years of delays caused by a pay gap dispute and packed schedules.

The original film’s success propelled the cast and crew to stardom, which slowed sequel plans.

Chu says the new series will match the heart, glamour, and cultural impact of the first film—and be worth the wait. (All Images: Instagram/crazyrichasians)
