Ke Huy Quan’s career has been on a high since his role in A24’s Everything Everywhere All At Once, and his first Oscar win for Best Supporting Actor has been the perfect conclusion to a phenomenal year. After struggling to find roles and taking a break from the industry, Quan’s comeback has been nothing short of legendary in Hollywood.
Ke Huy Quan wins his first Oscar
Playing Waymond Wang, the husband of Michelle Yeoh’s Evelyn, Quan’s performance has reminded everyone of his immense talent, which had been missed during his absence from the industry. The film, which was completed just before the Covid pandemic hit, took two years to make it to the big screen. Despite having a small budget and a seemingly absurd storyline, the awards and accolades the film has received have proven that a unique approach and the right actors in the right roles can create magic on the screen.
For Key Huy Quan, returning to Hollywood and reconnecting with old friends like Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford has been a dream come true. He has already landed new roles, including a part in the second season of the MCU series, Loki. It is impossible not to feel joy for an actor who has had a long and difficult journey to find his place in an industry where he truly belongs.
Quan will definitely be back for more
While the film has many standout moments, Quan’s favorite is when his character delivers a powerful speech about kindness. The three simple yet powerful words “Please be kind” moved him to tears during the shoot, and he believes that the film’s message about kindness, empathy, and love resonated with people, making the world a better place. He feels that if we all show a little more kindness and love to one another, the world would be a much better place.
As congratulations pour in for Key Huy Quan, it is clear that he is not going to fade away from the limelight anytime soon, and that bodes well for any project he lends his talent to in the future.
