Picture This
On this episode of Good Pop, we check out Picture This, a new british romantic comedy about a free-spirited photographer, played by Simone Ashley, who is told by a fortune teller that she will meet her soulmate, and he'll be one of the next 5 people she dates. If this sounds familiar, it's because this 2025 film is an adaptation of the 2024 Australian film Five Blind Dates (which we also covered on Good Pop)! But will this change in scenery also translate as good pop?

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
