Ke Huy Quan made his name in a pair of solid gold 1980s classics. In Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, he played Indy’s sidekick Short Round, following that up with playing Data in The Goonies one year later. Despite this great start, Quan found it difficult to get roles and decided to switch career focus away from acting and towards being a stunt coordinator and assistant director.
Now he’s made a truly incredible comeback with his first role since 1992 in Everything Everywhere All at Once. The multiversal adventure had a fantastic night at the Golden Globes, scoring Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy for Michelle Yeoh (who gave an instantly iconic acceptance speech) and Quan scoring an upset against the likes of Brad Pitt and Eddie Redmayne by scoring the Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in Any Motion Picture award.
