Actors Randall Park (Veep) and Ali Wong (Black Box) will soon work on new film together. Netflix will own and produce the movie, which is categorized as a romantic comedy between two old friends. Park has another big project on the way: he will also be appearing in the sequel film, Ant-Man and the Wasp.
Housing films at Netflix has become an increasingly more popular choice, with examples including Beasts of No Nation; The Fundamentals of Caring; and Okja. Another upcoming Netflix original film will star Rihanna (Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets) and Lupita Nyong’o (Queen of Katwe).
Through its extensive array of original films and shows (Orange Is the New Black; Master of None; and Luke Cage among others), Netflix has shown that it is more than capable of both storing outside material and producing new works. While there’s still a fair bit of time before people can view the upcoming Park and Wong-starring vehicle, it’s fair to say that the film will benefit from being housed by such a creator-driven company!
Currently, there is no specified release date for the film, for which Netflix is still putting together a team of actors, workers, and creators.
