Crazy Rich Asians is a 2018 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Jon M. Chu, from a screenplay by Peter Chiarelli and Adele Lim, based on the 2013 novel of the same title by Kevin Kwan. The film stars Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Gemma Chan, Lisa Lu, Awkwafina, Ken Jeong, and Michelle Yeoh. It follows a Chinese-American professor, Rachel, who travels to Singapore with her boyfriend Nick and is shocked to discover that Nick's family is one of the richest families in Singapore.
Michelle Yeoh's performance as Eleanor Sung-Young received widespread critical acclaim.
The film's scene at the Newton Food Centre received criticism for its lack of cultural diversity when showing vendors and the food they serve.
Screenwriter Adele Lim left production on the two sequels to Crazy Rich Asians following a pay dispute, which she felt was founded in racism and sexism.
