Michelle Yeoh, Justin Chien, Sam Song Li, Highdee Kuan, and Joon Lee will lead the eight-episode drama series “The Brothers Sun” on Netflix.
The story follows Taipei gangster Charles Sun (Chien), who has settled into his life as a ruthless killer. But when his crime boss father is shot by a mysterious assassin, Charles must go to Los Angeles to protect his mother (Yeoh) and utterly unaware younger brother Bruce (Li).
He soon finds himself torn between the life he’s been raised in and the life he could make for himself. Alice Jewkin, Jon Xue Zhang, Jenny Yang, Madison Hu, and Rodney To will have recurring roles in the project which features an all-Asian writers room and all-Asian cast.
Byron Wu and Brad Falchuk co-created the series. Falchuk is the showrunner while Wu serves as writer and both executive produce alongside Mikkel Bondesen and Kevin Tancharoen. The latter also directs.
