Our friends over at Kollective Hustle shared a cast photo from the first week of filming, Easter Sunday. The film stars Fil-Am comedian Jo Koy and directed by Jay Chandrasekhar. Easter Sunday takes from Jo Koy's life experiences all set around an Easter Sunday celebration.
The photo's caption shares the list of cast member involved in the film. We found out last month that Yellow Rose star Eva Noblezada is on the roster along with fellow comedian Brandon Wardell who's playing Jo Koy's son. Also joining the cast are:
Asif Ali
Tia Carrere
Lydia Gaston

"Starting production on Easter Sunday is the culmination of a lifetime of dreaming and decades of hard work.”
JO KOY
Jo Koy shared how meaningful it's been to start production on a film that highlights a Filipino family. It'll not only bring representation, but also showcase diverse and talented individuals, and the Filipino culture globally. He's said before that his story not only relates to Filipinos, but it resonates with many other people. The story of family is the center of Jo Koy's career and something that's relatable worldwide.
