Kumail Nanjiani on showcasing the immigrant experience(s) you haven't seen in Little America
— and, of course, they’re just a tiny sampling of the immigrant experience. Here, Nanjiani takes you inside the ambitious, stereotype-dashing, critically acclaimed series, which has already been renewed for a season 2. “There are so many stories that we already have, and hopefully once people watch, they’ll contact us with more stories,” says Nanjiani. “That’s the thing: we’re never going to run out of interesting stories to tell.
Immigration is a polarizing issue in the U.S. right now. Did that make this an ideal time to share these stories? One of my favorite moments is in “The Rock,” [which Nanjiani co-wrote], where the Iranian-born Faraz tells the real estate agent, “People think I escaped Iran. I had a great life in Iran. I came to America to provide my family new and excellent opportunities. That was my choice, so please, don’t feel sorry for me.”
