Shortly after the release and immediate success of the first film, Warner Bros. ordered one sequel based on the source novel’s sequel, China Rich Girlfriend.
Following the large critical and commercial success of Crazy Rich Asians Warner Bros. is thinking ahead and developing two sequels to the film with plans to film them both back-to-back, according to Deadline (via Collider).
Now it’s been confirmed that not only has the studio also ordered an adaptation of its sequel Rich People Problems, but that because of the busy schedules from the ensemble cast, filming on the movies will most likely not commence until 2020.
The script is currently still in the works for the sequels from Adele Lim and Peter Chiarelli, who penned the script for the first film, and director John M. Chu, who is shooting the film adaptation of In the Heights, will return alongside the majority of the film’s cast.
