'Eternals’ star Gemma Chan is set to star in and produce a biopic for Hollywood legend Anna May Wong.
Hot off the success of Marvel's The Eternals, Gemma Chan has been tapped to star and produce in a biopic centered on the iconic Anna May Wong, per The Hollywood Reporter. Nina Yang Bongiovi will produce with Chan, in addition to Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner of Working Title. The screenplay will be penned by a fellow Asian American trailblazer in David Henry Hwang, the first Asian American playwright to win a Tony Award.

One of her most prominent achievements developed in 1951, when she became the first Asian American series lead for a U.S. television series in The Gallery of Madame Liu-Tsong.
