Lulu Wang Instagram - We have a first poster! As Dani (@deteem) says, this is a show where life gets life-y… and we can’t wait for you to enter the world of #Expats with us. Coming January 26, 2024 on @primevideo
Lulu Wang Instagram - “There’s a sense of longing to escape, to leave, in this image. I think about the people on that plane as much as I think about the kids that are watching the plane. I think about the people what they’re leaving behind. It’s about regrets. It’s about sacrifice. I don’t know, maybe they’re much more scared than they are hopeful in that moment,” @thumbelulu tells CULTURED.

The filmmaker behind ‘The Farewell’ released the first two episodes of ‘Expats’ last Friday. The limited series unspools the lives and losses of a group of affluent foreigners living in Hong Kong. Starring Nicole Kidman, Sarayu Blue, and Ji-young Yoo, the show is an aching and atmospheric dive into how we carry collateral damage, and what happens when it starts to define us. Ahead of the third episode’s drop tomorrow, Wang called CULTURED to talk about a photograph by Singaporean photographer @_nguan_, which hangs in her Los Angeles home and influenced the visual language of both projects.

Lulu Wang Instagram - Back when #Expats showrunner and director Lulu Wang (@thumbelulu) was an indie filmmaker promoting #TheFarewell, her agent reached out to her. @nicolekidman wanted to know if Wang was interested in adapting “The Expatriates,” @janiceyklee’s novel about three American women living in Hong Kong, into a series for @primevideo.

Wang politely declined. “It wasn’t because I didn’t want to work with Nicole or that I wasn’t excited — I love the book,” Wang says. Part of what gave her pause was scaling up so dramatically after the narrow purview of “The Farewell’s” 24-day shoot and shoestring $3-million budget. This would involve tackling a big-budget studio project that required shooting in both Hong Kong and Los Angeles.

Then came Kidman’s make-it-happen campaign. It began with dinner, just the two of them. “What do you need?” Kidman asked her. “I just felt like I was daydreaming out loud — not really pitching,” Wang says.

Except Kidman assured Wang that it was all doable.

Lulu Wang Instagram - All eyes on #Expats. Catch a new episode tomorrow, only on @primevideo.
Lulu Wang Instagram - #Director Lulu Wang (@thumbelulu) and #DOP Anna Franquesa-Solano AEC (@annafranquesasolano) take us #behindthescenes of #Expats, shot with #Panaspeed lenses and serviced by #Panavision Woodland Hills.

Anna begins: 
“We wanted to capture a sense of restraint, since the three protagonists are constantly making an effort to not let go or surrender to their emotions, knowing that if they do, they will get lost. It is this attempt to keep control over their lives that influenced much of the visual look—subdued and constrained.”

Lulu continues: 
“Anna and I watched films together and also referenced photographers Michael Wolf and Christopher Anderson. We discussed how we’d visually represent this wound, this unseen thing. We also talked a lot about the contrast of the different worlds and spending a lot of time on the ground in Hong Kong gave us a lot of inspiration.”

Anna continues: 
“The reason why I went to Panavision for this project is because they have some of the best glass in the world and they were open to work with me to develop and find the look. The Panaspeeds gave us the control over the image that felt appropriate for the look. After performing some tests, Dan Sasaki modified them to be less sharp, softening the bokeh, controlling the flare to a minimum, and having very subtle glare around highlights, so we didn’t need any filtration during the shoot. 
We kept the look very clean, with no aberrations or flares to soften the reality that these women have to go through.”

Lulu concludes:
“The scale of EXPATS was far greater than anything I’ve done before, and it gave us a ton of runway to play with different visual languages and thematic ideas. It was important for us to be expansive without losing the intimacy or specificity for each character and their particular world. 

I became a director because I wanted to tell stories that transport you to another world and into another perspective. What keeps me inspired these days is collaboration. I love how collaboration expands my worldview and it helps me to continue learning and growing.”

Lulu Wang Instagram - When @thumbelulu was growing up, her family was certain of two things: She was destined to become a piano prodigy, and she needed to be grateful for the sacrifices her parents made to give her that opportunity.

In today’s episode, creator of #Expats and writer and director of @thefarewell tells the story of how she found her own space away from the expectations of her future, and in doing so, unlocked the joy of making her own discoveries.

Monster project
Lulu Wang, Film director and her Alter Ego

There is a Monster lurking within!
It’s the mental block, the blank page, the dark place we visit when we flex
our creative muscle. In this ongoing project we collaborate with our brave companion creatives who are willing to look for their Monsters and reveal them to us.

Lulu Wang Instagram - Lately - getting better at celebrating all the things with all the ones I love. Been thinking about the matriarchal society of our bees with their entirely female workforce right in our backyard… and the wonder of matsutake mushrooms which grow in forests that have been devastated by humans. But enough destruction already. Make honey. Make art. Make like matsutake and grow.

Lulu Wang Instagram - If you watched the final episode of EXPATS, you’ll see a dedication to our beloved friend and camera operator Matthew “Matty” Wakai, who we lost at far too young an age. Production teams usually become like extended family, but on this project more than others because of how long we were shooting in HK with many of us away from home. Matty was one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met, though he never treated it like working “hard,” and approached every challenge like a game. If there was something we didn’t have time to shoot with first unit, Matty was our guy. He loved his city and was always thrilled to help us capture all the details of Hong Kong. I know @annafranquesasolano loved Matty as a friend and as a collaborator more than I can put into words. Anna and I talked all the time about bringing him on all our future productions. Our producer On has known Matty since he was 7, and watched him grow into his remarkable talents over the years in the HK film scene. Matty was so kind, SO steadfast… the only thing he loved more than being on set was being with his wife and kid. It was a painful and sudden loss… one that left us all in shock, trying to make sense out of something so senseless. We love you always, Matty. I think you’d be proud of what we all created.

Lulu Wang Instagram - I’ve been thinking a lot about soft power vs hard power. Hollywood is known for its pursuit of hard power - “money, fame, external influence and affirmation, power and scale” (as said beautifully by @veramiao who always leads me to think in more expansive ways). But in embracing soft power, we can choose to only make things we love, and choose to only work with those we feel we can create meaning with. I could not have chosen more incredible partners than @sarayublue and @brian_tee and it gives me such immense joy to watch them show their full range in these roles. Soft power is @nicolekidman allowing us to use her name and prestige to create a platform for so many other talented folks who don’t often get offered the same kind of meaty roles. I hope to see more leverage of soft power to shift culture and expand narrative perspectives. Thank you @therebeccasun for this insightful piece spotlighting two stars that have so much more shine in them than we can even imagine.

Lulu Wang Instagram - I’m so moved by all the beautiful messages since 105 dropped. Thank you for watching, for being part of the larger dialogue I hoped to start with this series.  Too many things I want to say, but for now I’ll just share a few moments from set with my incredible Expats family.

4. The poor extra who braved the rain way too many times for this shot and laughed and thumbs upped me after every take.
5. More rain. So much rain. 
6. Joey our key grip holds umbrellas for the ladies and lovin it.
7. Joey. LOVING it.
8. Glamorous video village.

Lulu Wang Instagram - This is probably one of the most vulnerable interviews I’ve done to date. Thank you to the brilliant @samfragoso @karoline_ribak @talkeasypod for diving deep and being a constant reminder of how to stay human. Thank you @krishnabalashenoi for the very cool hand painted portrait and @juliuschiu for the photos. Much love to everyone who listens.

Lulu Wang - 3.8K Likes - “There’s a sense of longing to escape, to leave, in this image. I think about the people on that plane as much as I think about the kids that are watching the plane. I think about the people what they’re leaving behind. It’s about regrets. It’s about sacrifice. I don’t know, maybe they’re much more scared than they are hopeful in that moment,” @thumbelulu tells CULTURED.

The filmmaker behind ‘The Farewell’ released the first two episodes of ‘Expats’ last Friday. The limited series unspools the lives and losses of a group of affluent foreigners living in Hong Kong. Starring Nicole Kidman, Sarayu Blue, and Ji-young Yoo, the show is an aching and atmospheric dive into how we carry collateral damage, and what happens when it starts to define us. Ahead of the third episode’s drop tomorrow, Wang called CULTURED to talk about a photograph by Singaporean photographer @_nguan_, which hangs in her Los Angeles home and influenced the visual language of both projects.

Starring Nicole Kidman, Sarayu Blue, and Ji-young Yoo, the show is an aching and atmospheric dive into how we carry collateral damage, and what happens when it starts to define us. Ahead of the third episode’s drop tomorrow, Wang called CULTURED to talk about a photograph by Singaporean photographer @_nguan_, which hangs in her Los Angeles home and influenced the visual language of both projects.

Lulu Wang - 3.3K Likes - Back when #Expats showrunner and director Lulu Wang (@thumbelulu) was an indie filmmaker promoting #TheFarewell, her agent reached out to her. @nicolekidman wanted to know if Wang was interested in adapting “The Expatriates,” @janiceyklee’s novel about three American women living in Hong Kong, into a series for @primevideo.

Wang politely declined. “It wasn’t because I didn’t want to work with Nicole or that I wasn’t excited — I love the book,” Wang says. Part of what gave her pause was scaling up so dramatically after the narrow purview of “The Farewell’s” 24-day shoot and shoestring $3-million budget. This would involve tackling a big-budget studio project that required shooting in both Hong Kong and Los Angeles.

Then came Kidman’s make-it-happen campaign. It began with dinner, just the two of them. “What do you need?” Kidman asked her. “I just felt like I was daydreaming out loud — not really pitching,” Wang says.

Except Kidman assured Wang that it was all doable.

Lulu Wang - 1.1K Likes - #Director Lulu Wang (@thumbelulu) and #DOP Anna Franquesa-Solano AEC (@annafranquesasolano) take us #behindthescenes of #Expats, shot with #Panaspeed lenses and serviced by #Panavision Woodland Hills.

Anna begins: 
“We wanted to capture a sense of restraint, since the three protagonists are constantly making an effort to not let go or surrender to their emotions, knowing that if they do, they will get lost. It is this attempt to keep control over their lives that influenced much of the visual look—subdued and constrained.”

Lulu continues: 
“Anna and I watched films together and also referenced photographers Michael Wolf and Christopher Anderson. We discussed how we’d visually represent this wound, this unseen thing. We also talked a lot about the contrast of the different worlds and spending a lot of time on the ground in Hong Kong gave us a lot of inspiration.”

Anna continues: 
“The reason why I went to Panavision for this project is because they have some of the best glass in the world and they were open to work with me to develop and find the look. The Panaspeeds gave us the control over the image that felt appropriate for the look. After performing some tests, Dan Sasaki modified them to be less sharp, softening the bokeh, controlling the flare to a minimum, and having very subtle glare around highlights, so we didn’t need any filtration during the shoot. 
We kept the look very clean, with no aberrations or flares to soften the reality that these women have to go through.”

Lulu concludes:
“The scale of EXPATS was far greater than anything I’ve done before, and it gave us a ton of runway to play with different visual languages and thematic ideas. It was important for us to be expansive without losing the intimacy or specificity for each character and their particular world. 

I became a director because I wanted to tell stories that transport you to another world and into another perspective. What keeps me inspired these days is collaboration. I love how collaboration expands my worldview and it helps me to continue learning and growing.”

The Panaspeeds gave us the control over the image that felt appropriate for the look. After performing some tests, Dan Sasaki modified them to be less sharp, softening the bokeh, controlling the flare to a minimum, and having very subtle glare around highlights, so we didn’t need any filtration during the shoot. 
We kept the look very clean, with no aberrations or flares to soften the reality that these women have to go through.”

Lulu concludes:
“The scale of EXPATS was far greater than anything I’ve done before, and it gave us a ton of runway to play with different visual languages and thematic ideas. It was important for us to be expansive without losing the intimacy or specificity for each character and their particular world. 

I became a director because I wanted to tell stories that transport you to another world and into another perspective. What keeps me inspired these days is collaboration. I love how collaboration expands my worldview and it helps me to continue learning and growing.”

Monster project
Lulu Wang, Film director and her Alter Ego

There is a Monster lurking within!
It’s the mental block, the blank page, the dark place we visit when we flex
our creative muscle. In this ongoing project we collaborate with our brave companion creatives who are willing to look for their Monsters and reveal them to us.

Lulu Wang - 3 Likes - Lately - getting better at celebrating all the things with all the ones I love. Been thinking about the matriarchal society of our bees with their entirely female workforce right in our backyard… and the wonder of matsutake mushrooms which grow in forests that have been devastated by humans. But enough destruction already. Make honey. Make art. Make like matsutake and grow.

Lulu Wang - 3 Likes - If you watched the final episode of EXPATS, you’ll see a dedication to our beloved friend and camera operator Matthew “Matty” Wakai, who we lost at far too young an age. Production teams usually become like extended family, but on this project more than others because of how long we were shooting in HK with many of us away from home. Matty was one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met, though he never treated it like working “hard,” and approached every challenge like a game. If there was something we didn’t have time to shoot with first unit, Matty was our guy. He loved his city and was always thrilled to help us capture all the details of Hong Kong. I know @annafranquesasolano loved Matty as a friend and as a collaborator more than I can put into words. Anna and I talked all the time about bringing him on all our future productions. Our producer On has known Matty since he was 7, and watched him grow into his remarkable talents over the years in the HK film scene. Matty was so kind, SO steadfast… the only thing he loved more than being on set was being with his wife and kid. It was a painful and sudden loss… one that left us all in shock, trying to make sense out of something so senseless. We love you always, Matty. I think you’d be proud of what we all created.

Lulu Wang - 3 Likes - I’ve been thinking a lot about soft power vs hard power. Hollywood is known for its pursuit of hard power - “money, fame, external influence and affirmation, power and scale” (as said beautifully by @veramiao who always leads me to think in more expansive ways). But in embracing soft power, we can choose to only make things we love, and choose to only work with those we feel we can create meaning with. I could not have chosen more incredible partners than @sarayublue and @brian_tee and it gives me such immense joy to watch them show their full range in these roles. Soft power is @nicolekidman allowing us to use her name and prestige to create a platform for so many other talented folks who don’t often get offered the same kind of meaty roles. I hope to see more leverage of soft power to shift culture and expand narrative perspectives. Thank you @therebeccasun for this insightful piece spotlighting two stars that have so much more shine in them than we can even imagine.

I could not have chosen more incredible partners than @sarayublue and @brian_tee and it gives me such immense joy to watch them show their full range in these roles. Soft power is @nicolekidman allowing us to use her name and prestige to create a platform for so many other talented folks who don’t often get offered the same kind of meaty roles. I hope to see more leverage of soft power to shift culture and expand narrative perspectives. Thank you @therebeccasun for this insightful piece spotlighting two stars that have so much more shine in them than we can even imagine.

Lulu Wang - 3 Likes - I’m so moved by all the beautiful messages since 105 dropped. Thank you for watching, for being part of the larger dialogue I hoped to start with this series.  Too many things I want to say, but for now I’ll just share a few moments from set with my incredible Expats family. 
1. Pre-record of “Roar” for the opening scene.
2. Our ADs demonstrating how an actor who doesn’t play piano could use a hand double.
3. Maggie Li rehearsing her climb.
4. The poor extra who braved the rain way too many times for this shot and laughed and thumbs upped me after every take.
5. More rain. So much rain. 
6. Joey our key grip holds umbrellas for the ladies and lovin it.
7. Joey. LOVING it.
8. Glamorous video village.
9. Bodhi, Tiana and Connor - sibling love.
10. Blocking rehearsal. Chauncey plays Gus.

Lulu Wang - 3 Likes - This is probably one of the most vulnerable interviews I’ve done to date. Thank you to the brilliant @samfragoso @karoline_ribak @talkeasypod for diving deep and being a constant reminder of how to stay human. Thank you @krishnabalashenoi for the very cool hand painted portrait and @juliuschiu for the photos. Much love to everyone who listens.
