Notice how all of them were so successful as lawyers or doctors before they were even actors. A testament to our asian culture. I’m proud to be asian American.
Haha. Gotta be a doctor or lawyer engineer as a back up first. I was watching this choreographer, popper, who was amazing. Haha he was a mechanical engineer major in college.
Mega Mijit you sound jealous!!! Gemma Chan is a Queen to this girl She is beautiful, she exudes a soft classy sophisticated yet intelligent young woman, very attractive qualities.
I am an Asian European and I think that so many Asians has waited for this moment. No matter if the film will flop or be a success I just hope this will cause a flood of Asian representation in movies/series/tv shows in the future to come!
@Ax Martel he said he's Asian European not only European like Chinese American!!!! I disagree with you..you will never be Chinese but if you are born in China you will think as Chinese more than European because you will spend your life there..your friends and colleagues will be Chinese and you will probably marry to a Chinese like most of my cousins and I did.. so since you are not an immigrant kid don't talk about something that you don't know!
Being white, I went to see this film today. Hoping I could learn more about the Asian culture. This film was more than that, it was an important lesson for all that are in the business or those aspiring to be in the business. It's not the location, it's not the ethnicity. What will and has made this film successful so far is the universal need for acceptance, no matter the race. This film wraps up this universal theme in an Asian land, but the story can be told anywhere, with anyone. And that's the point. Good stories are universal, they speak to us all - Crazy Rich Asians does that and more. Go see this film.
Kristopher K ❤️❤️ Can’t wait to watch it this week. It’s screening in Malaysia from 22nd August. Proud of my fellow Malaysian actors Michelle and Henry. Also to the rest of the casts....
why do you have to start with "Being white". what does it matter. you trying too hard. forget the race thing. Your last line is what really matters. "Good stories are universal, they speak to us all - Crazy Rich Asians does that and more."
zacktam big facts it was good that he was like there’s more than the movie but I feel like the Asian ethnicity was very important to there not a lot of movies that focus on Asians this movie also shows how theres diversity in film industry so u shouldn’t just say that u just sound like some racist white kid that’s jealous over the success of the movie smh
Clarke.and.Coffee Fantastic measure of success. People from all these DIFFERENT countries, cultures, ethnicities, races ceding their actual diversity for the Asian label. Remind me of all the Europeans immigrating to the US now they are all just called "white".
It is odd that such a term is now used so often to apply to so many people. And seeing the "what's your ethnicity" question on tests tickles weird sometimes. As for Asians ceding to the label, what's wrong with that? No recognition or some recognition for a film where multiple attempts were made to change the lead character to a non-asian face to "appeal to an American audience". Small stepping stones in Hollywood. This is a video attempting to reach a wider audience than exclusive groups. They could have listed every nationality in the title, but it'd be huge. And one does not have to be Chinese as the character's role to understand the film's themes of identity and family really. I went to see the film and it's a fun romcom with additional themes threaded throughout. Not perfect, but fun.
@@OhayoMacchiato Think of it in terms of the negative stigma of "white pride". A diverse accumulation of European descendants took on this label and now they are shamed for even mentioning wanting to be proud of it. It's a Hollywood movie and Hollywood movies regardless of who is in it find their way into international theaters anyway, setting box office records of international viewership. If we wanted to support diversity, we would promote foreign-sponsored and produced films, not the patching together of "people who we can't tell apart" ascending in the Anglophone hegemony.
This video made me cry. I've never felt so proud to be an Asian Australian. Crazy Rich Asians has made me embrace my culture and for the first time in my life I'm so so proud to tell people I'm part Indonesian. Thank you for this movie.
Gemma chan is exactly how I imagined astrid would sound and looks like in my head while reading the book. I haven't watch the movie yet so I should go and hurry watch
everybody did law or pre-med or economics to please their asian parents before pursuing their own dream. i understand that pressure so well. i started doing genetics as a major until i changed it after 2 years to pursue film.
People are trying soooo hard to drag this movie down and downgrade the problem of Asian representation in Hollywood. Meanwhile, I'm floored by Kevin Kwan's hair and how nice and smooth and well-kept it looks.
I think theres a lot of LOVE coming from all kinds of people with this movie. So far it made 34+ million and counting..... in box office so that says a lot! Of course when there's LOVE there's HATE!! U can't please everyone!
I literally walked out of the theatre with my head held high. And during this movie, I felt crazy rich. That's an unusual feeling growing up Taiwanese in the US, finally this happened. It's like feeling like the popular kids in school like you & looks just like you. Very memorable!
I cried and I never cry in non-animated movies. Representation felt like that missing something I didn't know was taken from me. I'm 18 and am so glad to be alive to have seen this happen.
I'm in tears after watching this. I grew up in Malaysia and I miss my home so much. This is the first time I've seen Malaysians starring in a movie like this and I'm so proud
Just saw this movie. And wow was is great. Not just a great movie with talented directing, acting and humor, but also the representation of asians on the big screen hit home for me.
Gemma's approach to diversity is breathtaking, she is aware of this film bringing Asian diversity, but she also brings up diversity amongst different minorities. She is such a gem!!
I’m not Asian but I live in Asia and I cried during this movie. Loved it. Everything about it. It’s so well made. Incredible casting. Want to watch it again. I’ve been reading everything about it, every article, watching every video related to it. Movie tickets here in Hong Kong are expensive in my opinion but I’d go watch it again so just to contribute to its success! I can’t wait for the sequel 😍🙌🏼✨✨✨✨
As an asian growing up in the Bay Area around all kinds of asians from Japanese, Chinese, Indians, Filipinos, Koreans, Vietnamese, hapas, etc... and even those that immigrated from the UK and Australia, I am proud and happy to see that the cast is as diverse as possible within the context of the script. There's more to come for more stories to be told that can get as granular as possible. Hopefully we'll be witnessing and playing a part in this multi-dimensional narrative. And damn Gemma Chan is Queen Bae and Chris Pang represent!
The cast is not "diverse". If you've noticed, they're all chinese from diff countries with some exception. They should retitle the movie as Crazy Rich Chinese. It's more appropriate that way.

@@DeLaCruzer11 they are not all Chinese! Michelle yeho is Malaysian/Henry Golding is Malaysian hapa, ken jeong is korean,the bride is Japanese hapa the aunties are Malaysian too,the gay friend is Philippino some others are hapas too and kris aquino is filippina
Have a look at Chris Pang in the film Tomorrow When the War Began, I literally didn't recognise him when I saw this film... it was released about 8 years ago now and he has always had really amazing bone structure
saw it twice and am planning to see it a third time, I deeply relate to awkwafina’s words of “it can be done.” i hope and know that other kids and teens like me will feel the same way as i did watching this movie
I’m “crazy” about this movie and proud of it as well not only because it tapped the roots of my asian heritage but also opening the doors of diversity in the film industry. Thank you for making this movie happen. Maraming Salamat!
It definitely made me feel like the kid who saw Coco...finally we got to see something that wasn’t just of stereotypical idea of what Americans are familiar with! Thanks for making a normal movie with Asian people! So exciting to see!
"It doesn't matter how good you are or how talented you are,how many faces do you see in the screen that looks like ours?" shit. that made me cry a little bit. the power of representation man...
Love it, love it...they need more movies representing us. Thank you, I cried. I was very moved by the film. You are invested in Rachel and Nick relationship and you cheer for them. It was such a great and wonderful movie. Taking my other friendss to see it.
Groundbreaking film which gives people all around the world hope, representation, and inspiration. Great video showing the team's journey, albeit short. Would love to dive into each of their stories.
symbian Michelle was not in Joy Luck Club, but Lisa Lu who plays the grandmother in Crazy Rich Asians was one of the main characters of the former film.
The words of these people are so true and relevant to Asian American lives. We face prejudice and racial hardships on an everyday basis. But with the release of this movie, Asians, and minorities in general, can finally receive the same treatment as other people. The movie is honestly inspiring and I praise the work of these people.
Gemma's dad - breaks my heart every time I hear that! Well Sir, I hope you see lots more faces like yours and your beautiful daughters - there is so much talent in this movie, and Gemma's role in Humans was phenomenal!
Constance Wu is the BEST! Everyone i know was expecting to see another “Jessica Huang” like character from her, but we all loved her as Rachael instead...what a wonderful character actress!
I saw the movie tonight. Loved it! I’m Caucasian (shouldn’t matter) and what I saw tonight was a fun, romantic, funny movie with wonderful characters. There was music in Chinese - didn’t care (in fact enjoyed it ). The were occasional subtitles - didn't care. The movie was an all Asian cast - didn’t care. What I did care about was that the movie I was watching had a great story, something that touched the heart, great film making, characters I could indentffy with cause who can’t identify with love, family, and being an outsider at some point in their lives? I’m very happy that the movie is doing well ‘cause maybe that’s a sign others don’t care either.
Ax Martel can you explain what part of what I wrote implied self hate? It’s interesting to me that some would interpret it that way because I’m not aware of any self hate. Since I like learning new things and pride myself in trying to understand other perspectives I’d be interested if you could share what it was led you to conclude this. Also, the name is French and very common. It’s the male spelling. Female is Denise.
@Ax Martel I think when Denis said he doesn't care, it wasn't that he devalued Asians. But that he didn't let the Asian cast treat the movie any different
Exactly I'm Chinese and I saw the movie not for the Asian cast but because I saw the trailer and it was quite Interesting to see the beauty of Singapore and of course the story. I also saw monster in law with jane fonda( but her character was too fake )and jumping the groom with Paula patton. Those are the white and black version of this movie. The three of them are special in their own way and many people don't care about the ethnicity of the cast..my crush is terrence Howard and he's Chinese/Italian and not so fit either ah ah
Thanks, Los Angeles Times for this interview. This is one of the better interviews of the cast, writer, and director. I loved the movie and thank the author, director, and the cast of fine actors. I so appreciate this.
I loveeeeee this. Idk but this video just brings positivity. Thank you for interviewing the rest of the non-main-casts as well. Ive been on youtube and all the recommended videos are just about the main casts. I mean the rest of them made the movie great also and she should be more involved in the interviews i think? O h and btw how this interview showed their variety of background, accent, culture, i loveeeee it. Thank you again.
I'm so proud of this movie as it really reflects how much Asians all over the world wants this to happen! My tears keep flowing when at the end Eleanor played by Michelle Yeoh was the one that made this movie what it is, his embodiment of the "Asian values" that only we know is part of our culture..the remaining cast are all amazing!! I will have to watch it again and again for sure
I hadn’t cried watching any sort of romantic movie until I saw crazy rich Asians. If you grew up with the Asian parents who had the cultural mind set of raising children, every “cliche” line just really hits close to home. You can really feel the meaning behind those words because you grew up with these difficult and “strange” ways. And you can really see yourself and your family in these characters.
I was just as emotional about this movie as I was about Black Panther. This is the beginning and i pray it only opens doors for more. We live in a diverse world and our movies should reflect that too.
I'm white. I've been screaming for Asian representation in Hollywood for years. I want representation on my screen. I can't imagine how important this is to Asian Americans, or Asian descendants in Europe, Australia. I'm sick of Hollywood making excuses for not casting amazing Asian or Asian American talents!
Seeing how much this movie means to the actors and actresses just reminds me of how much it means to me. I am an proud Asian American who up until high school, never actually realized that I wasn't represented in the media in a a full capacity, the only people I ever looked like were the sidekick or the nerdy friend. I was never a main character. I don't think I actually realized that this literally affected how I acted up until recently. I've never had a person on the big screen like me and it was just so meaningful to be able to watch this movie and see people who look like me and have traditions like me.
so refreshing to see an all-Asian cast in a Hollywood movie in English! I hope there will be more in the future! This film was really good and well thought-out.
This movie really resonated with me. I was born in Canada but my parents came from China. I have never been more eager to go see a movie and feel that this makes being Asian kind of neat. At least until the next “ pro diversity” movie event comes around!
Leslie Charteris would have been very proud of the Crazy Rich Asians and its cast members and the milestone they have achieved. He is the original internationalist of fame who is of Eurasian origin.
i see this film as the first step is it a great film or an awards contender ??NO but its a small step to show the world that asians are'nt just the best friend,nerd,martial artist they can just be allowed to be real down to earth characters with real everyday struggles who just happen to be asian thats what i call progress
This movie is one of my favorites and I’ve seen it three times. Every time with my best friend. He was so excited to see people who looked like him on the big screen. When he moved to the Americas he was jarred to not see asians on the big screen. This year, this man has been so excited for two movies. This one and love Simon. It’s an amazing movie and it made me emotional to see this movie all three time, not just because the important representation, but because how excited someone I loved was and how this year is his absolute favorite year for representation. His boyfriend was just as excited to see this movie and was excited to see it the three times he made us. It’s a great movie! . I definitely plan on buying it when it comes out on dvd
My question for a long time, why Asians are not given a chance to a big stage? I mean Internationally? Hope this will be the beginning same as in music industry. Too many talented Asians both actors and singers.
@@봄본-v1i like korean dramas very famous worldwidee for quite sometimes now. I just hate to watch. You need to watch while reading english sub at the same time crying non stop, too tragic and I hate it 😱 Asians people are very dramatic and emotional, theyre crazy about drama and love story. I guess this will be the beginning of Asian movies. There will be a butthurt like this movie where they complain and asking where is the brown? means Indian cast.

@Ax Martel I think when Denis said he doesn't care, it wasn't that he devalued Asians. But that he didn't let the Asian cast treat the movie any different
Denis B are you from Caucasus region? Are you Azeri, Georgian or Armenian? If not then you are not Caucasian
Exactly I'm Chinese and I saw the movie not for the Asian cast but because I saw the trailer and it was quite Interesting to see the beauty of Singapore and of course the story. I also saw monster in law with jane fonda( but her character was too fake )and jumping the groom with Paula patton. Those are the white and black version of this movie. The three of them are special in their own way and many people don't care about the ethnicity of the cast..my crush is terrence Howard and he's Chinese/Italian and not so fit either ah ah
Gemma Chan thooooooooooooough!!!!😍😭❤❤❤❤❤
THIS MADE ME CRY. THANK YOU! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PROUD TO BE ASIAN, BUT NOW IM EVEN MORE PROUD!
LOVE Sonoya Mizuno's short haircut!
Thank you so much @LATimesEnt for sharing with us their stories, their stories inform us all of ours.
Thanks, Los Angeles Times for this interview. This is one of the better interviews of the cast, writer, and director. I loved the movie and thank the author, director, and the cast of fine actors. I so appreciate this.
I loveeeeee this. Idk but this video just brings positivity. Thank you for interviewing the rest of the non-main-casts as well. Ive been on youtube and all the recommended videos are just about the main casts. I mean the rest of them made the movie great also and she should be more involved in the interviews i think? O h and btw how this interview showed their variety of background, accent, culture, i loveeeee it. Thank you again.
Gemma Chan is so gorgeous and classy I love her!!!
A huge plus that the film itself is magnificent. I watched it twice and enjoyed it thoroughly. Props to the cast and crew.
I'm so proud of this movie as it really reflects how much Asians all over the world wants this to happen! My tears keep flowing when at the end Eleanor played by Michelle Yeoh was the one that made this movie what it is, his embodiment of the "Asian values" that only we know is part of our culture..the remaining cast are all amazing!! I will have to watch it again and again for sure
i love how they were all born and come from different places, yet they are all able to connect through their asian descent through this movie
Omg Chris Pang that plays Colin is from Melbourne? Me too ahhhh so proud of you. Your movie sold out in cinemas of victoria
I hadn’t cried watching any sort of romantic movie until I saw crazy rich Asians. If you grew up with the Asian parents who had the cultural mind set of raising children, every “cliche” line just really hits close to home. You can really feel the meaning behind those words because you grew up with these difficult and “strange” ways. And you can really see yourself and your family in these characters.
I was just as emotional about this movie as I was about Black Panther. This is the beginning and i pray it only opens doors for more. We live in a diverse world and our movies should reflect that too.
I'm white. I've been screaming for Asian representation in Hollywood for years. I want representation on my screen. I can't imagine how important this is to Asian Americans, or Asian descendants in Europe, Australia. I'm sick of Hollywood making excuses for not casting amazing Asian or Asian American talents!
I hope this is more of an indication that we need more stories like this. :) I want more stories like this.
I have over 50 cousins and siblings, only 5 of us don't have a doctorate or working towards one.
Seeing how much this movie means to the actors and actresses just reminds me of how much it means to me. I am an proud Asian American who up until high school, never actually realized that I wasn't represented in the media in a a full capacity, the only people I ever looked like were the sidekick or the nerdy friend. I was never a main character. I don't think I actually realized that this literally affected how I acted up until recently. I've never had a person on the big screen like me and it was just so meaningful to be able to watch this movie and see people who look like me and have traditions like me.
I saw the movie today and I couldn't help it when I saw Gemma. A true definition of class
Hah.. malaysian tvs have all the faces in the world!! Bollywood cantonese latin telenovelas arabs .. truly asia is an understatement.. truly rojak!!
so refreshing to see an all-Asian cast in a Hollywood movie in English! I hope there will be more in the future! This film was really good and well thought-out.
“I came to college with an Economics major because that was the easiest major that can still please your asian parents” same same
wow! they are all successful and just like an obedient asian kid...they studied hard as what their parents wanted but also they followed their heart.
This movie really resonated with me. I was born in Canada but my parents came from China. I have never been more eager to go see a movie and feel that this makes being Asian kind of neat. At least until the next “ pro diversity” movie event comes around!
Chris Pang is so handsome
Leslie Charteris would have been very proud of the Crazy Rich Asians and its cast members and the milestone they have achieved. He is the original internationalist of fame who is of Eurasian origin.
This literally made me so emotional. The movie is phenomenal.
gemma chan is everything
Hella ya, this makes me PROUDER to be an Asian American. Movie was great. 👊🏼
i see this film as the first step is it a great film or an awards contender ??NO but its a small step to show the world that asians are'nt just the best friend,nerd,martial artist they can just be allowed to be real down to earth characters with real everyday struggles who just happen to be asian thats what i call progress
I cant wait anymore!!!!!! Its 20 more hours to go.... argh! I be in the movie house to watch these Asians first hour tomorrow morning!
THIS IS OUR TIME #ASIANSNEVERDIE
This movie is one of my favorites and I’ve seen it three times. Every time with my best friend. He was so excited to see people who looked like him on the big screen. When he moved to the Americas he was jarred to not see asians on the big screen. This year, this man has been so excited for two movies. This one and love Simon. It’s an amazing movie and it made me emotional to see this movie all three time, not just because the important representation, but because how excited someone I loved was and how this year is his absolute favorite year for representation. His boyfriend was just as excited to see this movie and was excited to see it the three times he made us. It’s a great movie! . I definitely plan on buying it when it comes out on dvd
My question for a long time, why Asians are not given a chance to a big stage? I mean Internationally? Hope this will be the beginning same as in music industry. Too many talented Asians both actors and singers.
cause all our parents want us to be adoctor or lawyer lol
@@봄본-v1i like korean dramas very famous worldwidee for quite sometimes now. I just hate to watch. You need to watch while reading english sub at the same time crying non stop, too tragic and I hate it 😱 Asians people are very dramatic and emotional, theyre crazy about drama and love story. I guess this will be the beginning of Asian movies. There will be a butthurt like this movie where they complain and asking where is the brown? means Indian cast.
@@ultimatestargazer oh yeah every Asian parents focus on that.
we tend to go for careers with huge annual salaries. Asians are rarely on the spot light. Some are considered extremely lucky. Im asian btw
Why no indonesian????
