Ken Jeong, Jon M. Chu team for stand-up special
    2018-08-31  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

IT’S a “Crazy Rich Asians” reunion: Ken Jeong has set his first-ever comedy special and has enlisted “Crazy Rich Asians” helmer Jon M. Chu to direct.

The star was most recently seen in the breakout hit “Crazy Rich Asians,” which earned a massive US$35 million in its five-day debut and then added US$24.8 million in its second weekend. In total, the romantic comedy has earned US$80 million domestically in just two weeks.

Tentatively titled “Ken Jeong: First Date,” Jeong will take the stage to reflect on his journey from doctor to comedy star, and will open up about how his wife’s battle with breast cancer led to him starring in 2009’s “The Hangover.” The Netflix special will premiere in 2019.

Filming will take place Sept. 15 at the Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena, where Jeong first got his start in comedy. Jeong will executive produce with Brett Carducci.

“I am thrilled to work with Jon again, and his brilliant cinematic eye will capture the energy and excitement of my first stand-up special,” said Jeong.
