The Lana Condor starrer is a film adaptation of Jenny Han’s bestselling novel and revolves around the half Korean half white high school girl previously invisible to her classmates.
In an interview with NBC , the X-Men Apocalypse actor said that she always wanted to portray a rom-com character like Lara Jean but she did not “know of any rom-coms where Asian women are the leads.”
Condor made her debut with Jubilee in the sci-fi film.
Pretty Little Liars‘ Janel Parrish and Odd Squad‘s Anna Cathcart will play her sisters in the high school drama. On the film’s cast, Han had said, “This is groundbreaking. I haven’t seen Asian American women centered on the screen since Joy Luck Club, which was nearly 25 years ago.”
To All The Boys I Have Loved Before releases on Netflix, on 17 August.
