Season 1
The gate between worlds is opening.
Synopsis
American Born Chinese (2023), Season 1 is the Disney+ comedy-adventure you can watch online on iFILM — eight episodes that mix high-school life with Chinese mythology. Jin Wang just wants to make the soccer team and survive sophomore year.
Then a foreign exchange student named Wei-Chen shows up. What starts as an awkward first day turns sharp fast: an offensive meme of Jin goes viral, and the new kid turns out to be on a heavenly quest for the Fourth Scroll. Suddenly an ordinary teen is tangled in a war between gods, with Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon pulling at both ends.
Adapted from Gene Luen Yang's graphic novel, the season leans on a stacked cast — Ben Wang, Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan. All episodes run light and quick. Stream American Born Chinese Season 1 online on iFILM.
