The upcoming series stars Nicole Kidman, Sarayu Blue and Ji-young Yoo.
The Big Picture In 2019, filmmaker Lulu Wang released her feature The Farewell, which quickly grew to become a beloved film across critics and general audiences. Though not her first foray into feature filmmaking, The Farewell shined the spotlight on Wang and her work. Now, Wang is bringing her talents to the small screen with her forthcoming series Expats. During this year's Toronto International Film Festival, Wang debuted an episode from the series.
When speaking with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Wang shared why she initially passed on accepting Expats, noting that she was intimated by the scale of the project — which is already larger than Wang's previous feature work just from the format alone. The scope of Expats wasn't the only point of uncertainty for Wang. She mentioned the responsibility she felt "in depicting a place like Hong Kong.
Wang also mentioned Expats star Nicole Kidman as an important driving force for many aspects of the show, first sharing that Kidman is someone Wang was eager to work with. Along with starring in the series, Kidman also executive produces and has been part of the series since the earlier stages.
What to Expect From 'Expats' Expats is created, written, directed, showrun, and executive produced by Lulu Wang, adapted from the Janice Y.K. Lee novel The Expatriates. The series focuses on three women — Margaret , Hilary , and Mercy — who all move from the United States to Hong Kong and become connected by a tragic accident that will change their lives forever.
