Crazy Rich Asians’ Ronny Chieng Is Getting Chucked In Syd W/ Just His Phone

If you caught a cheeky glimpse of Ronny Chieng in the smash hit Crazy Rich Asians and decided you wanted to shove some more of his deadpan humour into your eyeballs, then you’ll be cheerin’ at the news that old mate Ronny has scored a gig on a brand new series.

Except Ronny’s experience is not going to be exactly as luxe as Crazy Rich Asians because it starts with him getting kidnapped from his hotel and deposited in the middle of an unknown city, left to fend for himself.

But coz he’s sneaky as heck, Ronny somehow manages to pop his phone in with him, so the three-part series will follow Ronny as he attempts to navigate his way around the city, using his phone to survive.

He’s outsmarting the crew and producers at every turn, and with each move he makes, his signature deadpan style will have you cracking up. It’s Parks and Recreation meets Survivor, and we’re all for it.

It harkens back to the shows that have the competitors doing wacky stunts, except in the urban jungle rather than an island off the coast of who-knows-where.

If you wanna have a geeze at the new series, you can find it on the 21st of January – and if you’re anything like me, you’ll probably watch it after coming home from doing the exact same thing – wandering Sydney with my phone and a confused look on my face.

Plus it’s always hilarious to see someone floundering around – but you’ll have to watch for yourself to see if it’s Ronny or the crew who wind up being flustered. Get on it, folks.
