Gemma Chan on Crazy Rich Asians sequel, karaoke with Jennifer Garner, being allowed to fail & Anti-Asian hate
Josh Smith's Great Chat ShowShow Notes
Gemma Chan has been acting for 20 years, and right now she is having the year of her life.
In this chat with Josh, Gemma talks about her karaoke night out with Jennifer Garner on the set of Five Star Weekend, and why the central theme of sisterhood hits close to home. She talks candidly about always putting a brave face on things, why asking for help doesn't come naturally, and the impact Crazy Rich Asians had on Asian actors in Hollywood.
Then there is Josephine. A film she has been attached to since 2019, which premiered at Sundance this year, and which is already generating early Oscar buzz. She talks about why she knew from the first page of the script she had to be part of it, and what it was like filming such raw and personal scenes alongside Channing Tatum.
Plus she joins the group chat to answer your questions, including the one everyone wants to know: will there ever be a Crazy Rich Asians sequel?!
