Michelle Yeoh Reacts to 'The Brothers Sun' Cancellation After 1 Season on Netflix

Michelle Yeoh is reacting to the cancellation of her Netflix series The Brothers Sun.

The 61-year-old actress starred as Eileen in the series, which centered on “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 (Yeoh), and his naive younger brother, Bruce (Sam Song Li) — who’s been completely sheltered from the truth of his family until now.”

Just last week, two months after the Netflix-branded “must watch series” premiered, the show was canceled after one season.

Now, Michelle is speaking out about the show coming to an end so soon.
