Oh, this is excellent news!
Fresh off their historical Golden Globe wins, Killing Eve star Sandra Oh is coordinating with The Farewell‘s Awkwafina for the Netflix film we never ever understood we required. Written by Jen D’Angelo—who is presently penning the extremely prepared for Hocus Pocus follow up—the upcoming film centers on a “lonely recluse” whose separated “train wreck” sis chooses to fix their relationship by getting her a slot on her preferred video game program. Thus far, the movie is untitled, though calling it the Awkwafina and Sandra Oh Dream Project appears fitting in the meantime!
The upcoming Netflix flick, which is produced by Will Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum for Gloria Sanchez Productions, will be the very first time that the stars appear on screen together, however plainly, it’s been a very long time coming. Sandra blogged about the Crazy Rich Asians star for TIME in 2019, when Awkwafina was honored on the 2019 TIME 100 Next list.
