EXO Lay Zhang’s 'MuMu' Set to Premiere – A Heartfelt Father-Daughter Drama
Lay Zhang is back on the big screen, ready to showcase his acting chops in MuMu, an emotional drama that promises to tug at heartstrings.
Following the massive success of No More Bets, Lay takes on a completely different role as a deaf father fighting for his daughter.
The film, directed by the filmmaker behind Love Will Tear Us Apart, is set to hit cinemas in China on 3 April.
It will also be released in multiple countries, including Singapore and Malaysia, giving international fans a chance to witness Lay’s powerful performance.
In MuMu, Lay plays Xiao Ma, a loving father who is deaf. Despite financial struggles, he shares a simple yet happy life with his daughter, MuMu.
Their bond is filled with love, understanding, and unspoken emotions—until their peaceful life is disrupted.
MuMu is played by Li Luoan, a rising child actress who first gained fame as a Douyin content creator before making her acting debut in Joy of Life 2.
In that drama, she portrayed Wang Ba, the daughter of Wang Qinian, a key figure in the story.
Now, she takes on a more challenging role as a child torn between two parents.
Trouble starts when Xiao Ma’s long-absent wife, Xiao Jing, suddenly returns.
She demands custody of MuMu, claiming her rights as the mother.
MuMu, who has only known love and care from her father, is forced into a painful decision.
As the battle for MuMu intensifies, Xiao Ma refuses to give up.
He fights with everything he has, determined to keep his daughter by his side.
The film explores themes of unconditional love, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between a father and child—even when words aren’t spoken.
With Lay’s heartfelt performance and Li Luoan’s impressive screen presence, MuMu is shaping up to be one of the most touching movies of the year.
Fans can expect an emotional rollercoaster as the story dives deep into the meaning of family and love beyond words.
Mark your calendars for 3 April and get ready to experience MuMu in cinemas.
Will Xiao Ma and MuMu find their way back to each other? You’ll have to watch to find out!
