James Corden will apparently go to great lengths to win the approval of your mom.

At least, he will if you're Henry Golding and your movie mum is played by Michelle Yeoh.

Corden starts out by declaring "I love mums, mums love me," but that clearly doesn't apply to Yeoh, who is in character as the (rather intimidating) mom from Crazy Rich Asians.

"I want to make this clear: you're not good enough for our family. You're not even good enough for you own family," Yeoh tells Corden after discovering that his dumpling folding skills are not quite up to par.

Still -- he manages to win her over in the end.
