Ke Huy Quan

Ke Huy Quan Instagram – Our second cover star is @kehuyquan. His early roles in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Goonies made him instantly beloved, and after years away from acting, he made a splash once again in Everything Everywhere All at Once, winning an Oscar and a new generation of fans. Since then, he’s turned his skills to the Loki series, and he discusses his return to acting and rich career with friend and Loki costar @twhiddleston.  

Ke Huy Quan wears @zegnaofficial OASI LINO SUMMER 24 throughout. Excerpt below:
 
“I never see myself as a veteran, even though I’ve been in this business for a long time. I always feel like I’m a kid. I was just 11 years old when I landed the role of Short Round. I really loved going to set, and never thought of it as a job, just enjoyed every minute. It was like a playground for me. It wasn’t something that I pursued. It just came to me.
 
Then as I got older, when I finally decide that this is what I wanted to do, ironically, those opportunities dried up. When I was a kid, I was doing movie after movie – I didn’t know how lucky I was until I decided that this is what I wanted to do. All of a sudden, I found myself with no career, and I was just in my early 20s. I decided to go to film school, because I didn’t want to leave this industry.
 
In retrospect, I wouldn’t change anything, because it made me a better person, I think. It made me treasure every opportunity that comes my way. And now when I walk on a set, I am filled with a sense of gratitude. And I feel very blessed to be able to do this.”
