Now authentic novelist Amy Tan and the primary movie’s screenwriter Ron Bass are following the 1993 movie up with a sequel.

Based on Deadline, a number of of the primary forged – which included Ming-Na Wen, Tamlyn Tomita and Lisa Lu – are in talks to return for the brand new film, which will likely be set within the current day.

The primary movie was a multigenerational saga of Chinese language and Chinese language-American moms and daughters, whose histories, tales and lives interweave as they navigate life. For the sequel, the moms turn out to be grandmothers and the daughters turn out to be moms in their very own proper, introducing a brand new era exploring their very own relationships with tradition, heritage, love, womanhood and identification.

No phrase but on whether or not director Wayne Wang may also return to make the sequel.
