Updated : October 20, 2023 05:26 PM ISTChloe Bennet and Ronny Chieng join Hulu's 'Interior Chinatown', injecting fresh energy into the series and its "strange world".
It's "lights, camera, action!" for Ronny Chieng and our very own Chloe Bennet. The dynamic duo is set to star in Hulu's forthcoming series, 'Interior Chinatown', a quirky project born out of 20th Television and the imaginative mind of creator/executive producer Charles Yu.
"Trapped in a Police Procedural": Exploring the Story of 'Interior Chinatown'
Based on Yu's 2020 bestseller, 'Interior Chinatown' revolves around Willis Wu (Jimmy O. Yang), a seemingly insignificant character embedded within a police procedural, striving for a more significant narrative role. On his quest, Wu uncovers "secrets about the strange world" he resides in and his family's obscure past.
Chieng, celebrated for his stints in 'The Daily Show', 'Young Rock', and 'Crazy Rich Asians', will portray Fatty Choi, Willis’s best friend with a love for video games and malt beverages.
"A New Energy to the Series": Chloe Bennet as Detective Lana Lee
Chloe Bennet, our star known for her memorable roles in 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' and 'Nashville', is all set to don the avatar of Detective Lana Lee, a novel lead in the procedural cop show 'Black & White'. Lana's entry promises to infuse "a new energy" into the series' reliable but overworked premise.
The pilot episode of 'Interior Chinatown' will be directed by none other than the remarkable Taika Waititi (Jojo Rabbit), who will also executive produce. Charles Yu will wear multiple hats as EP and showrunner, while Rideback, Participant, and Dive will serve as executive producers. As reported by Deadline, additional executive production credits include Dan Lin, Lindsey Liberatore, Elsie Choi, Jeff Skoll, Miura Kite, and Garrett Basch.
So, buckle up, folks! With a stellar cast and an intriguing premise, 'Interior Chinatown' is primed to captivate audiences, one strange secret at a time!
