Irreverent Red Band Trailer For Comedy JOY RIDE
A new road trip-esque comedy is coming this July from Lionsgate called Joy Ride. Two best friends head back to Asia in search of one of their birth parents and things just keep going wrong. The story comes from Cherry Chevapravatdumrong, Teresa Hsiao, and Adele Lim with the former two writing the screenplay and the last one directing the film.
Joy Ride stars Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Stephanie Hsu, and Sabrina Wu. You can watch a new red band trailer showing how Audrey (Park) and Lolo (Cola) become friends and glimpses of some of the rough patches that they will experience throughout their trip. One such rough patch is trying to pass off as K-POP stars.
From the producers of Neighbors and the co-screenwriter of Crazy Rich Asians, JOY RIDE stars Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Oscar nominee Stephanie Hsu, and Sabrina Wu. The hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery centers on four unlikely friends who embark on a once-in-a-lifetime international adventure. When Audrey’s (Ashley Park) business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo (Sherry Cola), her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat (Stephanie Hsu), her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye (Sabrina Wu), Lolo’s eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.
Chevapravatdumrong, Hsiao, and Lim are also producing Joy Ride as well as Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, and Josh Fagen. Additional stars for the road trip craziness include Ronny Chieng (Crazy Rich Asians), Desmond Chiam (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier), Alexander Hodge (Insecure), and Chris Pang (Crazy Rich Asians). You can watch Joy Ride in theaters on July 7.
