Update: Apparently it's looking like an April/Spring rollout...
As you might already know, I loved the film Paris, Je T'aime, so you probably aren't that surprised to hear me say that I can't wait to see the film New York, I Love You that screened out at TIFF last month - not just because I can't turn away from movies like this and because it's by the same producers of Paris, Je T'aime - but also because it has a plethora of Asian and Asian American representation.
The actual release isn't until February of 2009, but I wanted to post on it to make sure that it's on your radar and to also get you set for the next installment which is going to be in Shanghai (and I can't wait to see what talent gets on board for that film).
Here's a quick list of some of the Asian and Asian American talents in New York, I Love You:
- Directors: Shunji Iwai (also writer), Wen Jiang, Shekhar Kapur, Mira Nair.
- Writers: Hu Hong, Suketu Mehta, Yao Meng.
- Cast: Himad Beg, Richard Chang, Aron Charach, Sinsu Co, Irfan Khan, Maggie Q, Shu Qi, Gurdeep Singh
