The last time I saw Ken Jeong on the big screen was when he played the crazy Asian gangster Leslie Chow in 'The Hangover' series. Jeong is now back in yet another movie about drinking and partying hard, except this time, the bad decisions take place in LA's K-Town.

Titled 'KTown Cowboys,' the movie will follow a band of young, Korean-American bros trying to figure out adulthood. Directed by Daniel Park and written by Danny Cho, the film originally started off as a web series, with the first episode winning 'Best Feature Narrative' at the 2010 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival.
'KTown Cowboys' stars a main cast of Shane Yoon, Cho, Peter Jae, Bobby Choy, and Sunn Wee and it will also feature some notable names like Eric Roberts ('Runnaway Train,' 'Heroes'), Daniel Dae Kim ('Lost,' 'Hawaii Five-0'), comedian Steve Byrne, and Jeong ('The Hangover,' 'Community') himself.
As the executive producer of this film and knowing how Ken Jeong is as an actor, who knows what weirdness he will bring to the film?
The movie is set to premiere at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas on March 15.
