If your guilty pleasure is watching rich people live the life you dream of, then rejoice—because Crazy Rich Asians is coming to the small screen. Yes, you heard that right. If you love watching the wealthy spend money the way you spend hours scrolling through memes, you must tune in.

If you were mesmerized by the extravagance of the Young family in Crazy Rich Asians, here's your chance to relive all those luxurious moments. The movie is being adapted into a TV show and is currently in the works. While it was initially believed that a sequel to the original film would be made, it looks like life found another way.

Get ready to see exclusive designer bags, dream-worthy mansions, and wealth that rivals the GDP of some nations. The show will call everyone poor in every episode, but fans will still tune in to see which ancient artifact the Young family acquires next.

The big question remains: Will the series pick up where the movie left off, or will it afresh? And an even bigger question—will the original cast return? Only time will tell.

One thing’s for sure—the series will finally answer many lingering questions. Will we see more of Astrid and Charlie’s story? Did Rachel and Nick move back to Singapore? Fans are eager to find out.
