Asian Actress on the Verge of Getting Oscar Nom for "Downsizing"

If her lucky streak continues, Big Little Lies actress Hong Chau is on the cusp of being only the sixth Asian actress ever to be nominated for an Oscar.

And this well-deserved recognition will be for her portrayal of Ngoc Lam, a Vietnamese immigrant who finds herself in a new world against her wishes, in Paramount Pictures' dramedy, Downsizing.

Science Shrinks Humans in First "Downsizing" Official Trailer

Paramount Pictures has released the first official trailer for its new quirky comedy starring Matt Damon, Downsizing.

Check out the trailer at http://youtu.be/lQkDLOO2zFQ and watch Downsizing in Philippine cinemas January 2018.

Downsizing imagines what might happen if, as a solution to over-population, Norwegian scientists discover how to shrink humans to five inches tall and propose a 200-year global transition from big to small. People soon realize how much further money goes in a miniaturized world, and with the promise of a better life, everyman Paul Safranek (Matt Damon) and wife Audrey (Kristen Wiig) decide to abandon their stressed lives in Omaha in order to get small and move to a new downsized community — a choice that triggers life-changing adventures.
