Proud proud proud. In 9 part thread 👇🏼… it was only three years ago that #CrazyRichAsians was released… This weekend @henrygolding stars in his first big super hero movie #SnakeEyes as one of the most iconic heroes ever created and a ninja very close to my heart (go see it!) 
Later this year @GemmaChan is the star in @MarvelStudios #Eternals in what looks to be the start of a whole new chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe… (2/9)
Later this summer we will be seeing @awkwafina star alongside #MichelleYeoh and @ronnychieng in @MarvelStudios #ShangChi (3/9)

Independent journalism is the backbone of any social movement & change. @cpipr does that & more for 🇵🇷.
The @cpipr investigation led to uncovering over 4k died as result of #HurricaneMaria; brought corrupt chats to public from the [now former!] Governor, ignited massive peaceful public protests until he resigned; every day they produce unbiased reporting.
