The BOH Cameronian Arts Awards Gamechangers is a recognition of artistic Malaysians who have been trailblazers in their fields, and have made a name for themselves internationally as well as at home. One of this year’s Gamechangers is screenwriter/producer Adele Lim, who worked her way up in Hollywood - she was co-showrunner/executive producer for Starcrossed, and most recently co-wrote the screenplay adaptation of Crazy Rich Asians and the screenplay for Disney’s Raya and the Last Dragon. We speak with Adele about her work and her achievements.
