Shoes Off Inside with MKT

#21 - Adele Lim ("Crazy Rich Asians" Writer)


Listen Later

We continue to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month with a special interview with Adele Lim, television and film writer and producer who is best known as the co-screenwriter for the blockbuster hit “Crazy Rich Asians”. Adele was tapped to write the sequel to the film, but then walked away from the project when she discovered her writing fee was a fraction of what her white, male co-writer was offered. Adele took a bold stand proving she is not only, a badass woman, but also someone who isn’t afraid to take action to incite change. May’s original conversation with Adele was before COVID-19 hit in February so this episode is two parts…the original interview and a more updated chat where they both share their thoughts on everything from xenophobia to the future of Hollywood post-pandemic.
