Andrew Ahn’s 'The Wedding Banquet' brilliantly navigates the messiness, compromises and radical acceptance it takes to have and to hold each other without losing ourselves in the process. nashvillescene.com/arts_cult…

Mentioned at last night’s @AznAmCommittee meeting was a samurai #shortfilm I was seen in, likely this: #KODAMA, by Brian M Tang — an action/fantasy short about a SWAT-samurai squad rescuing a fallen captain (me), lost in a world of imprisoned evil spirits youtu.be/Jvqvo5OwCH0

10 Academy Award nominations for Wicked. Wow. I couldn’t be more proud of our crew and cast and everyone in between. This was built brick x brick by human hands with the greatest imaginations in the world. Thank you for this honor!!! You have given us light. Here is a video of me finding out our editor Myron Kerstein got nominated. I was a bit delirious this early in the morning.

Thank you @THR and @bverhoev for including me in your #THRTitan issue.
Jon M. Chu sat down with THR and walks us through his journey as a director. From creating Justin Bieber: #NeverSayNever, #CrazyRichAsians, #Wicked and many more, he tells THR the advice that changed his life, casting Ariana Grande as Glinda and more.

We're taking a moment to honor the DGA's 85+ year legacy of solidarity this Labor Day. Our founders united for Directors' rights. Today, we continue their legacy, fighting to protect the economic & creative interests of Directors & Directorial teams.
