Filming a series or movie production always seems like nothing but fun on the outside looking in. While being a part of the cast and crew is a fun experience in itself, it is still a job, and problems arise just like it would at a regular place of work. Sometimes, productions are suspended indefinitely as a result of too many issues, while others take a brief break to get things back on track. Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson's Apple TV+ series is the latest project to halt filming while things get sorted out. It seems that the untitled show, which stars and is executive produced by the actors and Skydance Television, sent its cast home due to creative differences.

According to Deadline, sources told the publication that production in Austin, Texas, was paused late last week, and the cast, which includes Holland Taylor, Natalie Martinez and Brittany Ishibashi,...

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson's Apple TV+ show Brothers has been hit with a major setback. Partly inspired by their real-life friendship, the comedy series features Harrelson and McConaughey playing fictional versions of themselves as their families begin living together at McConaughey's Texas ranch. Along with starring together in True Detective season 1, they have also worked together on the 1999 movie EDtv and the 2008 movie Surfer, Dude. For Brothers, Harrelson and McConaughey are joined by series regulars Oona Yaffe, Highdee Kuan, Nolan Almeida, Ella Grace Helton, and Noah Carganilla.

According to Deadline, Brothers'production has now been paused after showrunner David West Read exited the show. His departure is reportedly due to creative disagreements about how the season should end, as eight of the 10 episodes have already been filmed. Lee Eisenberg, who previously created the comedy series Jury Duty and Little America, is in discussions to become the new showrunner to...

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson’s Apple TV+ comedy series has paused production amid creative changes at the helm of the show.

Variety has confirmed that the series, currently titled “Brothers,” had finished filming eight of its 10 episodes in Texas before the shutdown. David West Read — who served as the series’ writer, showrunner, and executive producer — has departed due to creative differences. Lee Eisenberg is currently in talks to take over as showrunner for the final episodes as well as reshoots.

Eisenberg has previously worked with Apple on the anthology series “Little America” as well as the shows “Lessons in Chemistry” starring Brie Larson and “WeCrashed” starring Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway. His other credits include the hit Amazon series “Jury Duty” as well as “The Office.”

“Brothers” was originally announced in 2023 and is loosely inspired by the two stars’ actual friendship. The official logline states, “Matthew and Woody’s...

Changes are afoot behind the scenes of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson's untitled Apple TV+ series. Filming has been halted following the departure of David West Read as showrunner.

According to Deadline, eight of the 10 episodes had been shot before production in Austin, Texas was paused last week and the cast sent home. Lee Eisenberg is in negotiations to come on board as the new showrunner, which would entail overseeing the last two episodes and any reshoots. The showrunner change is reportedly due to differing views over how to end the season.

A return to production date is not expected to be set until the series' creative direction has been tweaked. The untitled series, at one point titled Brother from Another Mother and then simply Brothers, stars Harrelson and McConaughey as heightened versions of themselves in a heartfelt odd couple love story revolving around their strange and beautiful sibling-like bond.

Exclusive: Filming has been suspended on Apple TV+’s untitled brothers comedy series from Skydance Television starring and executive produced by Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, Deadline has learned. According to sources, production in Austin, TX was paused late last week, with the cast, which includes fellow stars Holland Taylor, Natalie Martinez and Brittany Ishibashi, sent home.

The development, which involves the departure of showrunner David West Read, comes as eight of the series’ 10 ordered episodes have been shot. Veteran comedy showrunner Lee Eisenberg, who most recently created and executive produced Apple TV+’s acclaimed limited series Lessons In Chemistry, is in negotiations to come on board as showrunner for the last two episodes and likely reshoots, I hear.

The change is being made amid differing views over how to end the season, sources said. The makeup of the brothers comedy series is unusual — its stars...

Real-life mafia expert Jimmy Tsui praises Netflix's The Brothers Sun for its realism. Tsui explains the hierarchical structure of Triad societies, with White Paper Fan being the highest level for women. The Netflix show receives a 7/10 rating for its accuracy, with Tsui highlighting the secret leader meeting scene as particularly authentic.

A real-life mafia expert gives a positive review of the Netflix crime drama The Brothers Sun. Consisting of eight episodes, and making its Netflix premiere in January, the project hailed from American Horror Story co-creator Brad Falchuk and writer Bryon Wu and told the story of a family that bands together when a factional war breaks out. Despite positive reviews and seemingly strong viewership, The Brothers Sun season 2 is not in the cards as Netflix cancelled the show in March.

Netflix has brought the curtain down on the Michelle Yeoh crime drama “The Brothers Sun” after one season.

The actioner revolving around Taiwanese organized crime and set in Southern California’s San Gabriel Valley bowed Jan. 4 on Netflix’s global platform. The series was created and executive produced by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu.

In addition to Oscar-winner Yeoh, “Brothers Sun” also starred Justin Chien, Sam Song Li, Highdee Kuan and Joon Lee. News of the cancellation was first reported by Deadline.

The series had an eight-episode run. Chein played a Taiwanese mobster who heads to Los Angeles area to protect his estranged mother after his father is assassinated in Taipei. Yeoh, who won the best actress Oscar last year for “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” received strong reviews for her work in the series.

The Brothers Sun, starring Michelle Yeoh, Justin Chien and Sam Song Li, will not be returning for a second season on Netflix, The Hollywood Reporter learned Friday.

While the reason for the cancellation wasn’t immediately known, the news comes months after the eight-episode first season of the action-comedy-drama premiered on Jan. 4. The show was created by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu, and also included Joon Lee, Highdee Kuan, Alice Hewkin, Jenny Yang, Rodney To and Madison Hu in the cast.

The Brothers Sun launched to critical praise, with reviewers hailing Oscar winner Yeoh’s standout performance. The show spent five weeks in the Netflix Top 10 for English-language series, peaking at No. 2, but it couldn’t find a large audience. Its performance was modest by Netflix standards, with its number of weekly views staying below 7 million and slipping under 2 million for its last two weeks in the Top 10.

The season finale of The Brothers Sun delivers a happy ending for the Sun family, with Charles opening a bakery and reconnecting with his mother in Taiwan. Mama Sun takes on the role of Dragon Head for the Triad gangs, seeking to organize and improve them after Big Sun's betrayal. Bruce gains confidence and ultimately shoots his father, leading to Big Sun's arrest, but the post-credits scene suggests potential for revenge and continued conflict in a second season.

We as an audience love a happy ending. True, some of us prefer more tragic endings that leave us feeling devastated. But the majority of the audience feels a sense of content when it comes to happy endings. It's a good feeling to see our favorite characters overcome their problems and achieve the ending they deserve. That's the type of ending that the Netflix action-comedy-drama series The Brothers Sun has given us.

The Brothers Sun premiered on Netflix with all eight episodes on Jan. 4, 2024, and is an action comedy-drama about a man named Bruce who learns about his family's gangster history. There is no confirmation of a second season yet, as Netflix has not made a renewal announcement, but the show received decent reviews for its cast, comedy, and balance of family compassion and action. If there is a second season, audiences can expect the main cast to return, and the plot would likely involve more of Mama Sun and Big Sun, Charles accompanying her back to Taipei, and Bruce embracing the darkness of being in a gangster family.

Plot: When the head of a powerful Taiwanese triad is shot by a mysterious assassin, his eldest son, legendary killer Charles “Chairleg” Sun heads to Los Angeles to protect his mother, Eileen, and his naive younger brother, Bruce — who’s been completely sheltered from the truth of his family until now. But as Taipei’s deadliest societies and a new rising faction go head-to-head for dominance — Charles, Bruce and their mother must heal the wounds caused by their separation and figure out what brotherhood and family truly mean before one of their countless enemies kills them all.

Happy New Year! There isn’t a better way to start the New Year than binging on dozens of brand-new movies and TV shows that were just added to the Netflix UK library.

First of all, here are the week’s top highlights:

Fool Me Once (Limited Series) N

Seasons: 1 | Episodes: 8

Genre: Crime, Drama, Mystery | Runtime: 50 Minutes

Cast: Michelle Keegan, Adeel Akhtar, Richard Armitage, Joanna Lumley, Emmett J Scanlan

Michelle Keagen marks her Netflix debut in the long-awaited and anticipated adaptation of Harlan Coben’s 2016 novel Fool Me Once. The series landed on Netflix on New Year’s Day, and we expect it to be featured extensively in the weekly top ten reports on Netflix UK for the next few weeks.

A grieving widow’s life is thrown into even more turmoil when her murdered husband appears on her secret nanny camera, leading her to uncover a shocking and deadly conspiracy.

When The Brothers Sun co-creator Byron Wu first conceived his story about a Taiwanese American immigrant family hiding their triad past in the suburbs, he knew exactly where such characters would live: the San Gabriel Valley, the Asian American enclave just east of the city of Los Angeles.

“It’s a hidden gem of Los Angeles,” said Wu, who lived in the Sgv’s Hacienda Heights when he first moved to L.A., in the press notes for the Netflix action dramedy premiering today, Thursday. The region’s underrepresentation in media appealed to him and co-creator and co-showrunner Brad Falchuk, and in addition to explicitly setting the story in the Sgv (younger son Bruce attends the fictional Cal State San Gabriel, characters carry grocery bags from Taiwanese American supermarket chain 99 Ranch), much of the series was filmed on location there.

To pay further homage to the area known as the...

Instead of shunning martial arts as cliché or stereotypical, many Asian creatives have leaned into that audience familiarity to help tell complex stories surrounding their experiences in this country and beyond. Michelle Yeoh has played a role in some of these recent efforts, including Disney+’s “American Born Chinese” and Marvel’s box office smash “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.” Now the “Everything Everywhere All At Once” star and historic Oscar winner is back at it, bringing her Hollywood clout to “The Brothers Sun” on Netflix.

Newcomer Byron Wu’s dark action comedy is a stylized gangster series in which Los Angeles and Taipei are worthy sister cities both poshly modern and Asian-centric. The action jumpstarts when an unexpected assassination attempt leaves powerful Taiwanese triad leader Big Sun in a coma, forcing his eldest son and legendary killer Charles Sun (Justin Chien) to LA to protect his...

The Brothers Sun is a Netflix action-comedy series with martial arts, family drama, and comedy elements mixed together. Michelle Yeoh leads the cast as Eileen Sun, the wife of a triad leader who moves to Los Angeles with her son Bruce. Bruce's life takes a drastic turn when his father is attacked, and his older brother Charles comes to protect the family. Sam Song Li, who plays Bruce, discusses his excitement about landing the role and working with Michelle Yeoh. He also talks about his improv experience and the dynamics between his character and his family members in the show.

Nearly two years after its initial announcement, action comedy The Brothers Sun is finally landing on Netflix. The 8-episode season was created by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu, and it manages to be a mix of martial arts action and family drama with a sprinkle of comedy throughout. Michelle Yeoh leads the cast,...

The Brothers Sun is an action-comedy series on Netflix, featuring Michelle Yeoh, Justin Chien, and Sam Song Li in the main roles. The show follows the story of Charles Sun, a Taipei gangster, who travels to LA to protect his family after his father is injured. The Brothers Sun combines martial arts action with a family drama storyline and comedic elements, creating a unique and entertaining viewing experience.

Netflix's new action show The Brothers Sun arrives on January 4, created by Brad Falchuk and Byron Wu. Though it is steeped in martial arts, depicting a growing war between Taiwanese triads, it is also at its heart a family drama with comedic elements. Noted action star Michelle Yeoh plays Eileen Sun, the matriarch of an intimidating triad who nevertheless lives a quiet life in LA with only one of her two sons.

Michelle Yeoh is back! Not that she went anywhere, to paraphrase the Nicolas Cage comedy "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent." Still, we're undeniably in the midst of a renaissance (a Yeohnaissance?) for the Oscar-winning Malaysian superstar, one that arguably started with her role as the steely matriarch of the uber-wealthy Young family in 2018's "Crazy Rich Asians." Her latest project, "The Brothers Sun," once again sees Yeoh playing the determined head of a clan, this time portraying Eileen Sun, the wife of the recently assassinated head of a powerful Taiwanese triad.

The Sun family's connections to organized crime come as a real shock to Eileen's youngest son Bruce (Sam Song Li), who's been living a quiet life with his mother in Los Angeles when his older brother, Charles (Justin Chien), shows up to break the news ... and with a whole lot of dangerous people who want them dead on his tail.

Michelle Yeoh continues to fight for her family. Netflix released the trailer for the new action comedy series The Brothers Sun. The former Jackie Chan co-star is the matriarch of a crime family called “The Jade Dragons” and a new gang has set its sights on cutting the head off of the snake. Her son, Bruce, is in danger as he is now finding out the family he once thought was normal, is actually full of dangerous secrets. The new series was created by Byron Wu & Brad Falchuk.

The official synopsis from Netflix reads,

“When the head of a powerful Taiwanese triad is shot by a mysterious assassin, his eldest son, legendary killer Charles “Chairleg” Sun (Justin Chien) heads to Los Angeles to protect his mother, Eileen (Michelle Yeoh), and his naive younger brother, Bruce (Sam Song Li) — who’s been completely sheltered from the truth of his family until now.
