Cathy Bui, Lynn Kim Do, and Jazelle Villanueva Will Topline Freeform Pilot “AZNBBGRL”

Villanueva in "Valets"

“AZNBBGRL” has locked in its cast. Deadline reports that Cathy Bui (“All I Ever Wanted”), Lynn Kim Do (“FBI: Most Wanted”), and Jazelle Villanueva (“Valets”) will topline the Freeform and 20th Television pilot.

From Natalie Chaidez and Dinh Thai, “AZNBBGRL” is set “in the vibrant Vietnamese community of Little Saigon in Southern California’s Orange County.” The coming-of-age story follows “three Asian American teenagers driven by a desire to break free from generational expectations and carve out their own place in the world. Together, these three very different women find escape and form a bond deeper than family when they become entangled with a street gang that offers them a way out.”

Another Freeform project on our radar, “Everything’s Trash,” premieres July 13. “2 Dope Queens'” Phoebe Robinson stars in the comedy about a podcast host living in Brooklyn.
