Dìdi is a 2024 American coming-of-age comedy drama film, written, directed, and produced by Sean Wang in his directorial debut. The film stars Izaac Wang and Joan Chen. Carlos López Estrada, Josh Peters and Chris Columbus serve as producers and executive producers under their AntiGravity Academy, Spark Features and Maiden Voyage Pictures banners, respectively. The film portrays Chris, a Taiwanese-American eighth grader (Wang) at the dawn of social media. Chris regularly uses social media to escape from his underwhelming childhood and overburdened mother (Chen), but the Internet also accentuates his preexisting feelings of internalized racism and personal inadequacy.
