American comedian Eddie Murphy is part of the eagerly anticipated comedy series which is directed by Kenya Barris.

Titled You People, Barris is making his debut as director and the cast will see top actors such as Murphy, Lauren London, David Duchovny, Nia Long, Sam Jay, Elliott Gould, Travis Bennett, Molly Gordon, Rhea Perlman, Deon Cole, Andrea Savage, Mike Epps, Emily Arlook among others.

According to various American publications, You People will look to reveal the clashes between people from different generations, ethnic backgrounds, and social classes.

As the trailer is already circulating, the movie will be released in January 27, 2023 and will air on Netflix.

Coming back to the director, Barris, he is no stranger to using comedy to tackle complex social themes, such as structural racism and the everyday struggle of Black people in the United States.

It is reported that You People follows a new couple from opposite cultural roots and how their families will deal with the fact these young people are in love.

By focusing on a multicultural couple, Barris explores how different families deal with expectations and how people from different generations can break the mold and forge new identities.

“It is a positive look at racial conflicts, focusing on how love forces us to question our prejudices. And ultimately, the movie argues how love might be the tool we need to build a world where people get along better than they currently do,” reports Collider.Com

“The trailer features Jonah Hillmeeting with Eddie Murphy’s character to discuss marrying his daughter and it goes about as well as one might expect for a rom-com that aims to tackle clashes between various social groups.”
