The upcoming third instalment of Little Nyonya is set to premiere in 2028 and will be helmed by executive producer Canter Chia and penned by scriptwriter Ang Eng Tee, who also wrote the first two Little Nyonya titles.<\/p>\n
The original Little Nyonya series first aired on Mediacorp’s Channel 8 in 2008 and follows the life of Yueniang (played by Jeanette Aw), a Peranakan woman who overcomes hurdles across decades.<\/p>\n
A follow-up series, Emerald Hill, premiered in 2025, starring Tasha Low, Chantalle Ng and Ferlyn Wong \u2013 with Aw reprising her role as Yueniang. Emerald Hill proved to be a blockbuster success, drawing over 2.1 million viewers in Singapore and becoming the first Singapore drama to debut at number one on Netflix Singapore.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Virginia Lim, Mediacorp’s chief content and talent officer, said: “The Little Nyonya continues to resonate because of the strength of its characters and performances. As we move into the next chapter, we carry this legacy forward with a clear ambition for what comes next.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We are looking for individuals with the presence, range and commitment to take on these roles. We believe strong talent can emerge from anywhere and those selected will be guided and supported to meet the demands of the production. This search is ultimately about finding the right people to carry the story forward.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
