Thank you for this lovely interview. You do not expect a 23-year actor to go through that, especially if you started from the top.
I am glad he stayed in movies in some other form. I did not realize that the production started before the pandemic, started auditioning again but kept getting rejected. That was a rollercoaster of emotions that he had to relive.
I hope he gets more roles and will keep acting until his 90s.
Man how in the hell does Hollywood say this guy doesn't have what it takes for a role, Those jackasses! Here's to you Brotha Quan, I hope these next years are filled with many roles and awards as you deserve them.
He was such a major part of my childhood, with Goonies, and Temple of Doom... I'm so happy for him, amazing talent. We should have gotten so many amazing roles from him over the years, if not for how Hollywood operates.. Here's to opening this is just the beginning of greater work to come from him.
because everyone complains about "wokeness"
Because there is a weird hate twords Asian actors for some reason. To Hollywood it's mostly white and black people. They pretend to be diverse but they really aren't.
"Wow, Ke, you're in this movie a LOT!" - that must have been so gratifying for his family, knowing he was struggling and FAILING even to get 2-line parts before, and is now a lead in a movie that became A24's most successful film ever.
Hollywood patting itself on the back for Ke Huy Quan's comeback, as if Hollywood wasn't responsible for the circumstances that made him give up on his acting career in the first place, is pretty hilarious.
Met him at Comic-Con. Loveliest human being. There was a fee to take a pic with him and we had to force him take the money. He is the kind of person who gives you his absolute undivided attention.
how can you not root for this guy? hopefully we'll see more of him in more roles.
As an Asian performing artist as well, it’s difficult to catch a break in the industry. You can see the representation of Asian performers in mainstream media is slowly increasing and more opportunities. Ke Huy really performed phenomenally. The character of Waymond was also so well written. I hope he has more roles and I get to see more of his work. His passion for acting really shows. Congratulations again Ke Huy!
Asian AMERICAN please
@@kifacorea What are you talking about? I’m not American.
All the best V with your creative pursuits!
@@Pivaxi lol
What a lovely man. He deserves all the success!
Crying with happiness for him and his community.
I'm obsessed with this man!!!! He changed my life, actually, Everything, Everywhere, All at Once changed me forever!
I bawled like a baby watching that film.
what a sweet story! So far he has won pretty much every award! He has a high probability of winning the Oscar! What a comeback kid! His perseverance has paid off!
protect him at all cost.
I'm so proud of him 😭😭 I nearly cried hearing his speach
He exudes such honesty and good vibes I love this man
Even though he has great talent, I understand what he went through in the last two decades when he wasn't cast in a film despite being talented. It's an irony we all face sometimes. My best wishes go out to Ke Huy Quan
i grew up watching the movies he was in and when i got older i was confused that i didnt see him in anything after that while many of his costars from back then went on to have adult careers in film. to say i was elated when i found out he was in Everything Everywhere All At Once would be an understatement. he brought such joy and love to that role and hes finally getting his flowers after all this time and i could not be happier for him. i hope to see him in many more projects in the future 🥺🥺🥺
His speech made me cry it was beautiful touching speech " made me wanna work harder too in life. Congratulations ke ku Quan " ❤️☯️
This is so wholesome, I almost can't take it
This guy has the charisma, energy, enthusiasm, and spontaneity of a great actor, which Steven Spielberg saw immediately when he cast him in Raiders of the Lost Ark, saying that Quan blew away everyone in the room when he auditioned. Too bad the rest of Hollywood passed on him for years--audiences missed out on so many great movies he could have been in. It really was rough, and still is rough, for actors and actresses who happen to be Asian or any minority for that matter.
I mean, the guy's American. Think of all the British, Australian and Irish foreigners who got good roles and became stars in Hollywood, like Crowe, Brosnan, Kidman, Tom Holland, Saoirse Ronan, Andrew Garfield...while Americans of Asian or Latin descent fought to get even speaking roles, much less lead roles.
He is so humble and pure-hearted, I adore him!
Holy cow! What an amazing, feel good story. I wish things had gone smoother for him, but, on the other hand, maybe this wouldn’t feel as great as it does if the struggle was removed. I guess things happen the way they’re supposed to happen.
How can you not love Ke!!! His vulnerability is just a fuck you to asian stereotypes.
Ke is really inspiring, this made me realize that it's never too late to follow what you're really passionate about, before I always loved watching behind the scenes of any movies, animations and play and I always wonder and love the idea of working in the backgound, I want to take film course, I'll definitely do that after my sister graduates, right now I'm paying for her college and can't afford, I'll support my sister's dream first, I just wanna share this cause I want people to realize how a single person or event can give impact to someone's life, so always remember that there's always someone who is grateful for your existence 😊
His performance in EEAAO deserves an oscar.
Blew me away!!!
Then you will be pleased to hear he received a nomination for best supporting actor! (and EEAAAO received 11 nominations in total). Hoping they all win big, especially Ke Huy Quan and Michelle (Yeoh)
@@ashbunny2645 🥹😄
stop making Ke cry, you make us cry too
Thank you, Ke. We feel so seen now. Thank you. 💪
Man, this hit hard. Such a beautiful interview and message never to give up on your dreams.
Jeff "Chunk" Cohen is Ke's lawyer?!? 😄 I love that.
Yah so nice to see they stayed friends after all those years
Goonies brothers for life!
He’s just a wonderful human being, seeing him so happy and winning so much acclaim just makes me love him all the more.
Everyone is so so so happy for you! We are all happy for ourselves too. You are a gift !
Truly lovely man who deserves every success.
What an incredible story.
A movie about Ke's life would be interesting.
Goonies Never say die!! So proud of you Ke Huy!
Also : Great Job Josh As Always👏& Keep Up The Great Work👍
I cry every time listening to him .
Great interview!
❤️You/Ke
Never give up on your dreams. Never
❤
He's still so youthful! Perhaps stepping away from the camera was a good idea, it allowed him not to get dragged down and worn out like so many people do. Especially minorities.
I wonder why Steven Spielberg and the other contacts he had in the industry were not able to get him roles, or at least chances to audition for them? Seems kind of strange.
Because American producers are sooooo “whiteish”😬😬
There were not a lot of roles for Asian actors.
I think the movie he is talking about is Heaven & Earth (1993), Oliver Stone film.
& : "Goonies Never Say Die"🖖
Why didn’t Steven ever give him another role as he became a struggling adult actor? Plenty of directors work with the same actors multiple times on different projects. He’s very grateful to Steven for his breakout role and I totally get that, but Steven discarded and ignored him after that like the rest of Hollywood
Stephen only needed him for kid movies, after he grew up probably didn't fit into his movies.
Can you upload the video with Rachel Zegler and Glen Powell?
Don't just blame Hollywood. How did Ang Lee or John Woo not notice this guy?
I think the story was after he didn't get any more roles, he lost his confidence as an actor so decided to study film and go behind the camera since he still have lots of passion for the film industry. In that sense he took himself out of the acting circle since there were hardly any acting offers.
He only came back and got an agent again after he saw Crazy Rich Asian and realised that maybe there might be a chance for him to get back in.
Because he stopped auditioning when these guys were becoming popular
I don't think that's fair to them. Ke had consciously moved on with his life into a different area of entertainment. Lee or Woo might not have noticed him, or if they had wondered about him, they might have surmised he was happier doing stunt work. I'm sure many people recognized him from the child roles and pestered him about returning over the years. Ke had to be the one to take the first step when he was ready to take a chance again.
John and Ang didn’t know him well but Spielberg knew him since Indiana Jones. Where was he ?
Ang Lee and John Woo were pioneers changing the movie scene to include diversity. And even if so, these directors do not make enough movies to cater all of the asian actor. This is not about actors of asian ethnicity, this is about opportunity in Hollywood not creating these jobs for asians.
