            Crazy Rich Asians was one of the most pleasant surprises of the year for me for many reasons. It showcased a truly underrepresented group of Asian-American actors, was a terrific romantic dramedy and was one of my favorite films of 2018 thus far. Luckily, we’ll be seeing two of them reunite all thanks to Paul Feig. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Michelle Yeoh will star in Last Christmas alongside the previously announced Emilia Clarke and Henry Golding, who also starred in Crazy Rich Asians.

            Last Christmas is a London-set holiday romantic comedy that follows Kate, an elf, played by Clarke, in a year-round Christmas shop who begins dating Tom, played by Golding. Tom seems too good to be true when he enters her life and starts to see past her so-called barriers. There’s no word yet on who Yeoh will play within the film.

Feig recently directed A Simple Favor which also starred Golding alongside Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick. I was already excited to see this film but even more so with the addition of Yeoh who was terrific in Crazy Rich Asians. She can be seen starring on the CBS All Access series, Star Trek: Discovery and will be seen next in Boss Level alongside Mel Gibson and Annabelle Wallis.

THR also says within their report that Last Christmas will feature the music of George Michael. Last Christmas hits theaters on November 15^th, 2019. Are you guys excited for this? Let us know in the comment section!
