Kelvin Yu’s sci-fi action series is adapted from Gene Luen Yang’s beloved graphic novel. And although the story differs quite a bit, the core remains the same. The six-episode series explores the coming-of-age and friendship between Asian American teen Jin Wang and high-school newcomer Wei-Chen, who arrives from heaven because a war is brewing between the gods—and Jin might hold the power to stop them. The show also boasts an Everything Everywhere All At Once reunion between Yeoh, Quan, and Hsu.
