Everything Everywhere All At Once dominated the internet in the recent past after being considered one of the best movies made last year. Ke Huy Quan, who played the role of Evelyn’s husband, Waymond Wang, recently headlined everywhere after receiving the Golden Globe for best-supporting actor. The actor is also excited about his inclusion in the MCU; revealing that the mastermind Kevin Feige himself called him to be a part of the superhero universe.
The 2022 sci-fi hit was a comeback project for the 51-year-old actor who played major roles as a child actor in some notable movies like Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Goonies. It can be understood that the actor is riding the chariot of success after his massive comeback.
Ke Huy Quan will soon make his MCU debut
When the Russo Brothers produced Everything Everywhere All At Once came out, many fans claimed that the movie portrayed a more accurate version of the multiverse than the much anticipated Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness. As Ke Huy Quan garnered a horde of appreciation for his role in the movie, he revealed that Kevin Feige was one of the first people who called him.
Recently, appearing in the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the Short Round fame revealed that it was the Marvel boss himself who called him to join the bandwagon of The Multiverse Saga. He was extremely overjoyed while voicing how exceptional this year was for him.
“When our movie came out, the first phone call I got was from Kevin Feige. Who graciously asked me if I wanted to join the MCU and I called Jonathan and the gang, and I said, you know what, nobody wants to hire me except Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas, The Daniels, and Kevin Feige. It’s been incredible. 2022 is the year I will always remember because it’s one of the happiest years of my life.”
Ke Huy Quan will be soon seen in the MCU in Disney+’s Loki Season 2. The actor will play the role of an employee under the infamous Time Variance Authority (TVA). Reportedly, he will play a major part in assisting the Tom Hiddleston character in his mission.
What do we know about Loki season 2?
Loki was one of the best projects made in the extremely underwhelming Phase 4 of the MCU. Among several projects that were straightway failures, Loki presented us with an interesting glimpse of what’s coming in the future for The Multiverse Saga.
It can be a precedent that the upcoming sequel to the 2021 series will be an exciting addition to the next phase, and will show us more about the concepts of the multiverse. We will also get to know more about the big baddie of The Multiverse Saga, Kang the Conqueror. An exclusive footage of the show was also shown at the D23 Expo that revealed this season to become more insane than the former.

Moreover, we can also expect a tonal shift as this season will be directed by the Moon Knight director duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. Now it will be exciting to watch how the series turns out and how Marvel Studios utilize Ke Huy Quan’s talents.
Loki season 2 will be streamed sometime in mid-2023 on Disney+, while Loki can be exclusively streamed on Disney+.
Everything Everywhere All at Once can be streamed by all Showtime subscribers.
