Crazy Rich Asians Sequel Enters Writing, Series Production Expected 2026

Henry Golding has confirmed that a Crazy Rich Asians TV series is in development, with production aiming to start in early 2026. While scripts are currently being written and have not yet been finalized or passed on to the cast, the project is described as promising. Adele Lim, the co-writer of the original film and showrunner for the series, is actively involved in the writing process and character development, with discussions ongoing to bring back original cast members. Director Jon M. Chu has emphasized that the sequel will take an episodic format and that returning cast members will depend on the quality of the script. Although the series is a separate adaptation from the long-anticipated film sequel, it is based on Kevin Kwan's book series and aims to explore the lives of Rachel Chu, Nick Young, and their social circle further. Fans should expect some wait time before the series arrives, but momentum is clearly building behind the scenes.
