Crazy Rich Asians (film)

Source: "Wu auditioned for the female lead, but her shooting schedule on Fresh Off the Boat conflicted with the film’s shooting dates... the actress took the unusual step of personally reaching out to the director with an email explaining her connection to Rachel...

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article has recently passed a good article review so it meets the criteria. I like the first hook. The source published by Vulture confirms the hook fact. The image used in the infobox of the article has a strong fair use rationale. All other images appear to be released under the correct licenses. Only one hefty quote used in a quotebox, which is acceptable. So no concerns regarding copyvios here. Well sourced through out. Congratulations on the GA too as it appears many worked on it.Rain the 1 15:10, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
