The moment Ke Huy Quan won best supporting actor at the Oscars.
Kenny and Irene Majers are the real-life owners of the San Fernando laundromat featured in ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once.” This is their story.
Giving up on acting, Quan studied film at USC and became a producer and fight choreographer , producing and shooting the short “Voodoo” , which went on to win the Slamdance Film Festival’s audience award.” in 2018 spurred him to get back in the game. He got a new agent and soon after landed “Everything Everywhere.”
“The reason I got so discouraged was every time there was an opportunity to audition — not an offer, but an opportunity — it was always for minor roles. Very stereotypical, marginalized,” he told The Times. “Now we have shows on prime-time television with an entire Asian cast, and there’s ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once.’
“For many years, I just had to be realistic. Now, I don’t have to be only realistic. I can also be optimistic.” As Quan proclaimed in his acceptance speech, looking back on his road to the Oscars stage: “Dreams are something you have to believe in. I almost gave up on mine. To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive.”
