We would love to introduce the talented, creative and unique talent, Michael Tow from TRIBECA and AT&T Award winning film, “Lucky Grandma,” which is set tot make it’s debut at the Tribeca Film Festival in late April/early May. Michael, who plays the role of, “Little Handsome,” is a low level gang member, hit man who doesn’t feel pain or has any remorse in trying to chase, track down and capture “lucky grandma.” Michael classifies his role in this film, along with his colleague (“gang member”) the “Marv and Harry” from the hit film, “Home Alone,” so they aren’t the smartest hit men in the world. This comedy, drama film is set to make its mark at the Tribeca Film Festival this year.

Besides starring in this TRIBECA film, Michael has been in the entertainment industry for quite some time, you may recognize I’m from projects like, BLINDSPOT on NBC, where he plays the character of Del Toro, a ruthless, hacker for hire who is hired by Madeline Burke. Del Toro was hired to hack into and take down a plane. He has been the center of the story line spanning for over 6 episodes this past season. Michaels other credits include films, Slender Man, The Sea of Trees, R.I.P.D. to just name a few and some Television that include, DareDevil, Royal Pain, MacGyvr, etc. With the the asian culture making waves in the industry, Michael is someone to watch out for….

In a partnership with AT&T, The Tribeca Film Festival, held its second annual, "Untold Stores" program, where many directors, producers and writers pitch their scripts to a panel for a chance to win $1 million dollars towards their film, with a year to make it come to life. Some of the panel consisted of directors, writers and producers from, Dallas Buyers Club, Birdman, Precious, Broad City, to just name a few. The award and funds went to the script/creators of, Lucky Grandma, Sasie Sealy and Angela Cheng. Lucky Grandma is about an ornery Chinese grandmother living n NYC’s Chinatown with a small-time gambling habit. Being really down on her luck, the grandma learns from a fortune teller that “a most auspicious day” is on the horizon. The grandmother takes fate and it turns out to be a a chase of a lifetime and lands on the wrong side of the tracks, in the middle of a Chinese gang war. The creators took their own featured home videos and clips of their Chinese mothers to explain the concepts, they say its a homage of amazing women, but explain that grandmas of this decent (American and Chinese) are relatable and so specific.

Michael also owns his own production company called, Tow Arboleda Films, who are AWARD WINNING filmmakers. Last year, Michael and his co-producing partner won 2 Telly Award for their shorts film, Christmas Forward. His production company started 2 years ago making social justice short films and videos (14 films/videos to date) usually responding to or parodying Asian American events in the news. Their first video, the Mannequin Challenge video Awoke, was named won of the top Asian American videos in 2017 by popular blogger Angry Asian Man. They have been seen by over 5 million people across the world and are currently making a feature length documentary movie on Chinese American comedian talk show host , Joe Wong.

In his spare time he loves to spend time with his family, living in Boston and New York City, Michael also finds time to play hockey, one of his other passions.
