When and where is ‘Finding Mojo’ releasing?
According to Variety, romantic comedy “Finding Mojo” will open nationwide in Malaysia on July 23. A Singapore release follows on July 31, and an Indonesian bow is described as being in the works.
In practical terms, that’s a fast, region-first rollout—exactly the kind of test case producers watch when they’re trying to prove a local story can travel.
Why is Double Vision calling this “Southeast Asia’s moment”?
“Finding Mojo” is arriving as Double Vision widens its international footprint, with Min Lim framing the push in explicitly global terms. “For too long, Southeast Asia has been viewed primarily as a place where international productions come to shoot,” Lim said, adding: “I think the next chapter is about creating stories here that travel everywhere.”
Lim also drew a bright line between being a service company and becoming a studio brand: “We’re not trying to build a company that occasionally makes international projects,” she said. “We’re building an international studio that happens to be based in Southeast Asia.”
What is Sympatico, and how does it fit into the plan?
The release is described as the first feature from Sympatico, the Malaysia-U.K. production label Double Vision launched with veteran British producer Richard Johns. Variety also reports that Double Vision is now part of Vision Entertainment Group, a recently rebranded studio operation, with Min Lim serving as group CEO.
Lim says the film leans into “sacrifice and community,” arguing that the values at its core aren’t limited to one audience. “While ‘Finding Mojo’ isn’t an Islamic [film], those values belong to everyone,” she said, adding that the cast should be a major draw in Asia and that the team hopes “universal themes” will help internationally.
What else is the company building beyond this rom-com?
Variety reports Double Vision is also developing “Emergency,” a limited series with Luke Evans attached to star, positioned as Sympatico’s next project.
On the TV side, the company has also struck a co-production agreement with Astro Shaw and the Philippines’ ABS-CBN covering three premium drama series, with the first currently in development—part of a strategy to build “repeatable cross-border projects” rather than relying only on home-market commissions.
If “Finding Mojo” lands with audiences across Malaysia and Singapore (and eventually Indonesia), it won’t just be a rom-com win—it will be a proof point for a bigger thesis: Southeast Asian-originated stories can be packaged, financed and released with global intent from day one.
