It has been slow, but steady progress. Asian actors have traditionally played second fiddle to their Caucasian counterparts. But in recent years, there is a pivot towards diversity in film and TV. Movies such as Crazy Rich Asians would have been challenging to make say, around 10 years ago. But now, it is celebrated.
The shift in casting diversity has opened up opportunities for talented Asian actors and directors to mark their mark internationally. In 2021, there is quite a number of movies starring or directed by Asians. Here’s a look at the Asians making a splash in the movies.
The Parenting Review: It starts off as a fun horror-comedy with a great cast, but loses its charm halfway through. The laughs fade, the scares feel predictable, and by the end, it’s just another forgettable haunted house story.
The Electric State Review: A visually expensive yet emotionally empty journey that wastes its talented cast. Despite its promising premise, the film struggles to deliver a compelling story.
These movies and shows should satisfy your Invincible cravings.
