Petty Criminal Inherits Fortune, Faces Deadly Elite

Havana Rose Liu is set to star in a new crime drama pilot for FX, helmed by Emmy winner Hiro Murai and acclaimed filmmaker Wong Kar Wai. The pilot, developed from an original concept by Wong, is slated for production in Bangkok beginning later this month. Liu will portray a petty criminal who inherits a stake in a mysterious, powerful corporation. This unexpected turn of events catapults her into a realm of vast wealth and constant danger.

She becomes a target for a ruthless elite who view her ascension as the ultimate threat. The project hails from Searchlight Television, with Murai directing from a script by Charles Yu and Julia Cho. The production boasts a distinguished creative team, including executive producers Yu, Cho, Murai, and Wong Kar Wai.

Murai recently made history as the first Asian director to win the Emmy for Comedy Directing for his work on the hit series 'Widow's Bay.' Wong Kar Wai is renowned for his iconic films such as 'Chungking Express' and 'In the Mood for Love,' with his most recent major works including the Chinese drama series 'Blossoms Shanghai.' Liu's recent credits showcase collaborations with notable directors, and she is slated for several upcoming projects.
