How Brenda Song and Macaulay Culkin’s kids react to their work

Brenda Song will forever be the familiar face we grew up watching on the Disney Channel, but to her kids, she’s just Mom.

“I think they don’t even care, you know? Honestly, I think they might even think it’s lame. I’m pretty sure my son would prefer me to be a firefighter,” Song told the Daily News with a laugh.

The “Suite Life of Zack and Cody” alum joked that when her partner, Macaulay Culkin, puts his movies and shows on screen, their two sons Dakota and Carson don’t even realize they’re watching their mother.

Song’s latest project, “Operation Taco Gary’s,” definitely isn’t one her kids will be watching anytime soon, she joked, adding, “they won’t be able to watch this one for a very long time.”

In this absurdist comedy, Song stars alongside Dustin Milligan, Simon Rex and Jason Biggs in a crazy story about two brothers whose cross-country journey turns into chaos after they are drawn into a global conspiracy.

The former Disney Channel actress says the film’s unusual style is what initially attracted her to the script.

“I was thinking about all the crazy things, like my own theories about this movie while reading it,” Song recalls. “But what’s so fun is because it’s so absurd and you can really think outside the box.”

Song has been busy with several projects following her roles in “The Last Showgirl” and the Netflix comedy series “Running Point,” where she starred alongside Kate Hudson, which recently wrapped its second season. Song says balancing work and family taught him “the art and power of letting go.”

“I’m a control freak and I feel like becoming a mom made me realize, ‘oh, I just have to let go and accept the chaos that is my life.'”

“Operation Taco Gary’s” hits theaters Friday, February 27.
