Based on Charles Yu’s award-winning book of the same name, Hulu's upcoming Interior Chinatown follows the story of Willis Wu (Jimmy O. 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 and dreaming about a whole world beyond Chinatown. When he inadvertently becomes a witness to a crime, Willis begins to unravel a criminal web in Chinatown, his family’s buried history, and what it feels like to be in the spotlight. The series premieres Tuesday, November 19th.
