Asking how Joss Gomez got established actors, Eric Roberts and Lorenzo Lamas and E! "Dr. 90210," Dr. Robert Rey to star in his cop buddy spoof, Joss simply said they're his friends that he built through- out the years, working and co-starring with them.

Eric Roberts
Lorenzo Lamas stars as Joss' Mexican-American dad while Eric Roberts' wife, Eliza, stars as Joss' Italian-American mom.
Where every time, Joss' character, Marc Valentine, always have a spaghetti dinner with Mexican-American pop and Italian-American mom.
Despite being a "player cop," his dad still talks and treats Detective Marc Valentine in an infantile way, out of fatherly concern, care, and love.
E! Dr. 90210, Dr. Robert Rey showcases his martial art skills as the baddie, Professor Malevolent.
Joss Gomez produced, directed, and acted in "Team of Two" out of love for the Eighties (his character is an Eighties Michael Jackson and Miami Vice fan) and the buddy cop movies, that came out from that era. Don't worry, everybody is in on the joke and having fun.
What's really interesting, is that Joss, naturally, casted and developed today's contemporary mixed ethnicity cast and characters, without giving away the ending, leads to a dad and son mentor-relationship.
"Team of Two" is another leap forward in buddy cop comedy.
