Lana Condor, best known for her role as Lara Jean Covey in the To All the Boys franchise, is set to star in a new romantic comedy called Worth the Wait. Directed by Tom Shu-Yu Li, the film has been described as a modern take on Love Actually with a star-studded Asian American cast. The movie was recently acquired by The Exchange, generating excitement among fans and industry insiders.
Worth the Wait takes inspiration from Love Actually, a beloved 2003 rom-com that tells the stories of various characters and their intertwining relationships. Similarly, Worth the Wait will follow multiple Asian American strangers as they navigate love, repair broken connections, and forge new ones throughout the course of a year. The film promises to tug at the heartstrings and deliver the feel-good romantic moments that audiences crave.
