"Yeoh mentions the Asian-centric Netflix comedy she starred in last January, The Brothers Sun. "It never got picked up, and that was devastating to me," she says. "It was funny, it was beautifully done...I don't know what else you need. So we still need to keep pushing forward. We don’t have a choice." In some ways, Yeoh is still bending Hollywood to her whim, fighting for better roles, setting new precedents for Asian actors in the US. And boy, can she fight. "It's very important you don’t let other people dictate who you are or what you do," she says. "Especially now, at this point in my career. I have my community, where we know how to support each other. We'll find the writers who will write something other than the 'grandmother'."" -Michelle Yeoh: 'When I look back at it, I go, "What the hell were you thinking?"'
