Emily Ting’s feature directorial debut ALREADY TOMORROW IN HONG KONG will make a limited theatrical bow in select cities on February 12th, 2016 via Gravitas Ventures. The film will also simultaneously open with a wide cross-platform cable/satellite/telco and internet VOD on the same day.
ALREADY TOMORROW IN HONG KONG premiered at the 2015 Los Angeles Film Festival and has quickly become an audience favorite throughout its festival run during the Fall. The film is written and directed by Emily Ting, and produced by Ting and Sophia Shek. It stars Jamie Chung and Bryan Greenberg.
“This movie is my love letter to Hong Kong and to love, so I can’t imagine a better release date than on Valentine’s Day weekend! I am really looking forward to partnering up with Gravitas to bring the film to audiences everywhere!” said director Emily Ting.
In this sparkling romance, Ruby (Jamie Chung), a Chinese American toy designer from LA, visits Hong Kong for the first time on business. Finding herself stranded, she meets Josh (Bryan Greenberg), an American expat who shows her the city. Meandering through nighttime streets pulsing with energy and possibility, they fall into a winding and carefree conversation, buoyed by an undeniable attraction. As effervescent as a perfect first date, Emily Ting’s charming directorial debut takes full advantage of the chemistry of its leads, the playfulness of their exchanges, and the magical landscape that is Hong Kong at night.
