The streaming giant announced the news on social media Thursday. “Not just rich — crazy rich,” read the post. “From Jon M. Chu and Adele Lim, #CrazyRichAsians will continue as an HBO Original Series starting production in 2027.” Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Ronny Chieng, and Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh will return as series regulars in the one-hour original series.

“It’s a ‘Crazy Rich’ family reunion! This series is the sequel we’ve been waiting for, but instead of just one movie, we get eight episodes to delve into the characters and worlds of Kevin Kwan’s brilliant books,” said Lim, who co-wrote the screenplay for the 2018 film and will helm the TV series as showrunner and executive producer, per Variety. “Getting to work with the original creative team with the support and vision of HBO and Warner Bros. Television has been a dream. Our writers room is humming and we can’t wait to share what we’ve come up with.”
