Lucy Liu Unveils New Lob Haircut Ahead of ‘Rosemead’ Release
NEW YORK, NY — Lucy Liu has debuted a striking new lob haircut for her upcoming role in the drama film ‘Rosemead.’ The actress revealed her fresh look in the trailer for the film, set to hit theaters on December 5.
‘Rosemead’ premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in June and follows the story of Irene, portrayed by Liu, and her son Joe, played by Lawrence Shou, as they navigate life after Joe’s schizophrenia diagnosis. The film draws inspiration from a poignant 2017 Los Angeles Times article by Frank Shyong titled, ‘A dying mother’s plan: Buy a gun. Rent a hotel room. Kill her son.’
This role represents a significant shift for Liu, who is best known for her work in lighter productions like ‘Ally McBeal,’ ‘Watching the Detectives,’ and ‘Why Women Kill.’ In a recent interview, Liu shared her thoughts on the project, emphasizing the challenge of constructing a narrative around a family with limited public knowledge. ‘The script had to be pieced together… to understand the dynamic between Irene and her son,’ she stated.
During the film’s premiere, Liu expressed her excitement about the opportunity to take on this role. In an interview with Parade, she said, ‘To have this opportunity to do something that shows that this is why I’m here gives me such joy.’ Liu is optimistic about her future projects, conveying that her best work lies ahead.
As fans await the release of ‘Rosemead,’ they are eager to see Liu’s transformation both in style and her professional journey. Her ability to evolve as an actress is sure to captivate audiences in new and profound ways.
