Yang & Ronny Chieng and behind the scenes is What We Do in the Shadows & Our Flag Means Death creator & filmmaker Taika Waititi executive producing. Check out the first trailer above.
Based on Charles Yu’s award-winning book of the same name, "the show follows the story of Willis Wu (Yang), a background character trapped in a police procedural called "Black & White." Relegated to the background, Willis goes through the motions of his on-screen job, waiting tables, dreaming about a world beyond Chinatown and aspiring to be the lead of his own story. When Willis inadvertently becomes a witness to a crime, he begins to unravel a criminal web in Chinatown, while discovering his own family’s buried history and what it feels like to be in the spotlight."
In addition to Yang & Chieng, the rest of the cast includes Chloe Bennet, Lisa Gilroy, Sullivan Jones, Archie Kao, and Diana Lin.
Series creator Charles Yu serves as executive producer alongside Taika Waititi (who directed the show's first episode), Dan Lin, Lindsey Luberator, Jeff Skoll, Miura Kite, Elsie Choi, Garrett Basch & John Lee.
