Next month, B&H will host a special panel with acclaimed director Jon M. Chu and cinematographer Alice Brooks to discuss their most recent film collaboration, the incredible big-screen adaptation of In The Heights. Before the event, I had a chance to speak with Chu and Brooks about the movie and their longtime friendship, and finally put to rest the age-old question of which is the better Step Up movie.
Jon M. Chu
Jon M. Chu most recently helmed the critically acclaimed adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony Award-winning musical In The Heights for Warner Bros. Studios, which was released June 11, 2021 in theaters and on HBO Max. Chu is perhaps best known for directing the worldwide phenomenon Crazy Rich Asians, which was nominated for numerous awards and earned more than $240 million, making it one of the top 10 highest grossing romantic comedies of all time. It was the first contemporary studio picture in more than 25 years to feature an all-Asian cast. Currently, he is readying the production of Universal’s Wicked, the feature-film adaptation of the record-breaking musical phenomenon. For television, Chu serves as an executive producer and director of Home Before Dark for Apple TV+, which recently debuted its second season. Previous credits include Step Up 2: The Streets, G.I. Joe: Retaliation, “Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never,” and more, representing over $1.3 billion worldwide.
