Wall Street Journal: Part of Eddie Huang cast in New ABC comedy

Hudson YangProducers of the ABC comedy now in development and based on the memoirs of celebrity chef Eddie Huang has cast the part of Eddie, reports the Wall Street Journal.
 
10-year old Hudson Yang is the son of Wall Street Journal columnist and long time Asian American blogger and entrepreneur Jeff Yang. Hudson has won the approval of his real life counterpart.
 
“Hudson had a natural kind of orneriness to him,” said Huang. “He didn’t seem to care [about getting the role]. The other kids were way too excited to be there. Hudson is comfortable in his own skin, and he’s not overeager to please. That’s rare in a 12 year old. And he also has these mannerisms you just can’t teach.”
 
You can watch a few clips which I presume to be from Hudson’s audition below.
 
You can read more behind the scenes information on the show which is tentatively titled Far East Orlando (a name which has generated controversy) in the Wall Street Journal.
