The Rush Hour pilot, written/executive produced by Bill Lawrence and Blake McCormick and directed/executive produced by Jon Turteltaub, centers on Lee, a by-the-book Hong Kong police officer assigned to a case in Los Angeles, where he's forced to work with Carter, a cocky LAPD officer who has no interest in a partner.
