“If you go anywhere near our family, there will be no where on earth you will be safe again.” Damn! Don’t mess with her. Netflix has revealed the first look teaser trailer for a new action comedy series titled The Brothers Sun, co-created by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu. It will be out for streaming in January just after we kick our way into 2024. The series follows Charles Sun, a Taipei gangster who’s settled into his life as a ruthless killer, but must go to L.A. to protect his mother and younger brother after his father was shot by a mysterious assassin. Netflix describes it as an action-packed comedy and family-drama, that is set between Taiwan and Los Angeles, about this family and all the crime they’re caught up in. Justin Chien stars with Michelle Yeoh, Sam Song Li, Highdee Kuan, and Joon Lee. The cast also includes Alice Hewkin, Jon Xue Zhang, Jenny Yang, Madison Hu, and Rodney To. This looks solid for barely 45 seconds of footage so far. Yeoh looks great as the sneaky matriarch. Keep an eye out for this series arriving in January.
