Henry Golding says ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ sequel is in works, 'Hopefully sooner than later'

<p>&nbsp;‘Crazy Rich Asian’ breakout star, Henry Golding—<a href="https://www.wionews.com/opinions-blogs/asian-representation-in-hollywood-better-now-than-later-398890">of Asian origin</a>—who will soon be seen in ‘Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins’, reacts to critics of him taking over the role that was originally played by Ray Park (a white actor) in ‘G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra’ and its 2013 sequel ‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation’.</p>

<p><br />
In a recent interview, Golding explained why a change in the race of the role doesn’t change its story.</p>

<p>“(Hama) gave us license to co-create with him the backstory that he always wanted to tell… People are like, ‘That’s not history, he’s white.’ Well, maybe Larry had to do that. Larry had to make it such an obvious story. When he was writing comic books, he had to use tropes: White guy learns the way of the ninja. Now you may be white, Black, whatever, but you will be a fish out of water when you are taken from your culture and put in someone else’s. Those are the intricacies we can use in our stories now. That wasn’t the case back in the day,” Golding said about creator Larry Hama’s aspirations behind writing the story of G.I. Joe.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
Golding also confirmed that Hama—who has written most of the G.I. Joe comic books—approves of his casting.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
“It starts from conception, creating stories and characters anybody can play. Is it so important that your character has to be a particular race?” he questioned. ‘If it’s (the character’s) actions that drive the story, then anyone can play it. Anyone should play it. If you’re not serving justice to the page, then what’s the point?” added Golding.</p>

<p><br />
Golding said, “It’s rubbish. We’re playing characters. Not their background,” he said. “It’s bonkers we’re still having those conversations when we’re fighting for something so much bigger. It’s toxic. We should be uplifting each other and rooting for the success of everyone. Not just a few because they’ve been lucky to be brought up in a certain location.”</p>

'Crazy Rich Asians' star Henry Golding to feature in film adaptation of 'The Tiger's Apprentice'

<p>Who doesn't like a good 'ol rom-com during the holiday season? And when you have two Britain's most popular faces playing the lead couple, you know you are in for a good ride. The trailer of 'Last Christmas' was revealed on Tuesday and it pairs up 'Game Of Thrones' star Emilia Clarke with Henry Golding who was last seen in 'Crazy Rich Asians'.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Directed by 'Bridesmaids' and 'Spy' helmer Paul Feig, the film focusses on Clarke who plays an unhappy woman trying to make living at an all-year-round Christmas shop in London.</p>

<p>Her life takes a turn for the better when too-good-to-be-true Tom (Henry Golding) walks into the store and immediately sees past her barriers. What ensues is a heartwarming Christmas love story backed by the music of George Michael.</p>

<p>Golding shared the first poster of the film on his Instagram page on Tuesday.&nbsp;</p>

Who doesn't like a good 'ol rom-com during the holiday season? And when you have two Britain's most popular faces playing the lead couple, you know you are in for a good ride. The trailer of 'Last Christmas' was revealed on Tuesday and it pairs up 'Game Of Thrones' star Emilia Clarke with Henry Golding who was last seen in 'Crazy Rich Asians'. Directed by 'Bridesmaids' and 'Spy' helmer Paul Feig, the film focusses on Clarke who plays an unhappy woman trying to make living at an all-year-round Christmas shop in London. Her life takes a turn for the better when too-good-to-be-true Tom (Henry Golding) walks into the store and immediately sees past her barriers. What ensues is a heartwarming Christmas love story backed by the music of George Michael. Golding shared the first poster of the film on his Instagram page on Tuesday.

'Crazy Rich Asians' star Henry Golding to feature in Guy Ritchie's next

<p class="MsoNormal">Hollywood has finally got its very own Karan Johar-esque film in ‘Crazy Rich Asians’. The film that has smashed quite a few records and become the top grosser in America in the past two months has the grandeur, aplomb, and scale that the title of the film suggests it to be.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Based on a book by the same name by author Kevin Kwan- who also serves as the co-producer of the film- ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ is two hours of visual extravaganza. It shows Singapore in all its glory and doesn’t leave any chance of showing how rich its characters are.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">When NYU economics professor Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) agrees to accompany her boyfriend Nick Young (Henry Golding) to Singapore to attend his best friend Colin’s wedding, she happily agrees not knowing the madness she will land up into. Young’s family is crazy rich and considered royalty in Singapore – a fact that Rachel is unaware of till she lands in Singapore. And while Nick is keen to make her meet his mother (Michael Yeoh), Rachel finds herself feeling inadequate in front of the rich guys. It also doesn’t help that while Nick is sure that Rachel is ‘teh one’, his mother outrights tell Rachel, “You will never be enough.”</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Mounted on a big scale, ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ has all the glamour and aplomb which sets the perfect backdrop but the story is a known one where a free-spirited, confident young woman learns to rise up to the pressure imposed on her by her boyfriend’s family. It's a regular, run-of-the-mill story which does not offer anything that you already can’t predict.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">In fact, it is just like a big budget Bollywood film- full of colours and unnecessary drama infused into the narrative. The actors look a million bucks, the sets are grand, then there is a disapproving mother-in-law, an airport chase sequence- basically, a very Indian story.</p>

<p>The humour is few and far in between although overall the film is nice and light. Among the actors, the lead actors Wu, Golding and Yeoh- all play their parts well. Both Wu and Golding bring enormous charm to their characters of Nick and Rachel. Awkwafina plays Rachel’s hilarious best friend and brings in the few laughs that are there in the film.<br />
<br />
<iframe allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZQ-YX-5bAs0" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">What is unique is the fact that director Jon M Chu, in a bid to keep the story authentic, has an all Asians star cast which has been received well in America. It’s a first for Hollywood and hopefully not the last one, where diversity and inclusion of other races have been abysmal until now.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It is also somewhat amusing and ironical, that a film that takes jibes at how the American culture is, has worked so well at the American box office. In at least three to four sequences in the film, the importance of family and culture are emphasized and Rachel’s American background scoffed at. Yet, Americans seemed to welcomed the film with arms wide open.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Should you be watching ‘Crazy Rich Asians’? Only if you are in the mood for a good-old romantic comedy with greats sets and very good looking actors. It is not a bad film, but it definitely doesn’t offer you anything new.</p>

The actors look a million bucks, the sets are grand, then there is a disapproving mother-in-law, an airport chase sequence- basically, a very Indian story. The humour is few and far in between although overall the film is nice and light. Among the actors, the lead actors Wu, Golding and Yeoh- all play their parts well. Both Wu and Golding bring enormous charm to their characters of Nick and Rachel. Awkwafina plays Rachel’s hilarious best friend and brings in the few laughs that are there in the film. What is unique is the fact that director Jon M Chu, in a bid to keep the story authentic, has an all Asians star cast which has been received well in America. It’s a first for Hollywood and hopefully not the last one, where diversity and inclusion of other races have been abysmal until now. It is also somewhat amusing and ironical, that a film that takes jibes at how the American culture is, has worked so well at the American box office. In at least three to four sequences in the film, the importance of family and culture are emphasized and Rachel’s American background scoffed at. Yet, Americans seemed to welcomed the film with arms wide open. Should you be watching ‘Crazy Rich Asians’? Only if you are in the mood for a good-old romantic comedy with greats sets and very good looking actors. It is not a bad film, but it definitely doesn’t offer you anything new.

‘Crazy Rich Asians’ review: It’s like any other big budget Bollywood love story
