00:03 "Brother, Son" is a action family drama

00:10 about how location and circumstance

00:13 make you to the person you are.

00:15 The big themes in "The Brother, Son"

00:17 are family, and very specifically what

00:19 it is to be a son in an Asian immigrant family.

00:22 No, your brother first.

00:24 It didn't really become a show until the mom character

00:27 was brought into it.

00:28 And that dynamic between the brothers and the mom,

00:31 and that's when the show really sparked.

00:33 He hit me.

00:34 We don't hit families.

00:36 Michelle Yeoh plays Mama's son.

00:38 She's an icon of action movies.

00:41 She's also an Oscar winner.

00:43 She's really easy to work with, but the work

00:45 has to be incredible.

00:46 It was a gift to have somebody like that around to do that.

00:49 And then you actually see what she does on the show.

00:51 She makes everything look so good.

00:53 Justin and Sam were hanging out with Michelle quite often.

00:56 She's so kind and nurturing.

00:59 She's always so prepared and professional.

01:01 Her energy even transcends the screen.

01:03 Just watch.

01:05 It was so great to have her there

01:07 to provide an example to our really young cast.

01:10 And the advantage of having Michelle

01:11 is that you could play somebody holding back, holding back,

01:14 and then as soon as they let go and they show their power,

01:17 you completely buy it.
