From TV to the silver screen, Constance Wu is now reportedly in the talks with Warner Brothers for an upcoming lead role in the much-awaited Crazy Rich Asians movie.

Constance is slated to portray Rachel Chu, an American-born Chinese economics professor who travels to Singapore for the wedding of Nick's (her boyfriend) best friend, and then eventually discovers her boyfriend's massive fortune in the process.
