![]() Lisa Lu as Shang Su Yi (Ah Ma), Nick’s grandmother. Tan Kheng Hua as Kerry Chu, Rachel’s mother. (Of course, girl, you need that! Who else is going to speak to the snobbish princess aside from Rachel, right? The Cinderella in the movie.) I mean, Princess Intan, as a snobbish Malay princess, she played a significant role in the movie, making Rachel Chu’s image a little stand out from everyone even after Eleanor ignored her and refused to be seated with her. And everyone in the Philippines are actually waiting for it. I should say, Kevin Kwan made sure that Kris Aquino will get a spot and by getting a spot means creating a brand new character that best suits her. (Knowing Gemma is one of the most fashionable IT Girls in the social media…yeah.) The story of Astrid is a bit short in the film compare to the book, however, it was adapted firmly or should I say, it has justified whatever Kevin Kwan had envisioned Astrid in reality.Īnd one of the most talked about character is, Princess Intan, played by our very own Queen of Multimedia (Philippines), Ms. Astrid has a whole lot of story going on in the movie and with Gemma, playing her, I feel like the whole definition of classy and fashionable is there.

Michelle Yeoh as Eleanor Young, the mother of Nick Young. ![]() But with the whole macho-geek thing happening, Henry played Nick so delicately effective because, yes, I kind of pictured him as the Oxford-grad, history professor and at the same time, an heir of his family’s wealth. Although his background didn’t quite add the authenticity of playing a Singaporean because Henry is a Brit-Malaysian born. He is well known for The Travel Show by BBC. Nick Young, played by the ever documentary hottie, Henry Golding. She played the role elegantly, although I was looking for a little accent, because I was expecting Rachel to have just a little of the accent, but all in all, she was great. With her playing as Rachel Chu, I have no words aside from EXCELLENT.
