"Interior Chinatown," starring Jimmy O. Yang (who plays Willis), is an adaptation of Charles Yu’s satirical novel that jabs at how Asian American men have been treated by Hollywood — and in life — one trope at a time.

An Asian American waiter named Willis gets embroiled in a mystery after witnessing a crime in Charles Yu's National Book Award-winning novel. Jimmy O. Yang stars in the new Hulu adaptation.

Ronny Chieng and Chloe Bennet also star in Charles Yu’s adaptation of his own acclaimed 2020 novel, about an unassuming waiter who gets caught up in a cold case involving his missing brother.

Tomorrow we'll see the premiere of Interior Chinatown, Hulu's new action comedy series starring Jimmy O. Yang as Willis Wu. Inspired by Charles Yus acclaimed novel, the series centers on Wu, a background character in the fictional police procedural Black & White.

In his new Hulu series, Yang plays a waiter who inadvertently becomes central to a crime story. As an Asian American actor, he says he relates to the character's feeling of invisibility.
