Everything Everywhere All at Once co-star Ke Huy Quan made history on Sunday night.
Quan became the first Asian actor to win Best Supporting Actor at the Screen Actors Guild and will very likely become the second Asian actor to win in the same category at March’s Oscar ceremony.
The Goonies and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom standout has enjoyed a career resurgence with his deeply moving turn in Everything Everywhere All at Once. Barring a seismic upset, Sunday night’s SAG win will position Quan for an Academy Award.
His speech accepting his SAG Award was incredibly tender and might get you misty.

If that doesn’t move you, we’re not sure what will. Quan’s awards moment has been one of the more special for an actor in quite some time, and an Oscar win would be the absolute best way to cap it.
If you want to see more of Quan, he’ll be appearing in the Disney+ shows Loki and American Born Chinese later this year.
