Ke Huy Quan Lost His Health Insurance Right After Filming ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’: Nobody Else ‘Wanted to Hire Me’

,” which has already nabbed him prizes from the Golden Globes, Critics’ Choice Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards. The upcoming Academy Awards will cap a three-year journey Quan has taken with “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” The A24 multiverse drama shot in January 2020, but its theatrical release was held for two years until March 2022 because of the COVID pandemic.

“I was about to lose my health insurance,” Quan said. “So, I called my agent and I said, ‘Can you please get me anything? It doesn’t matter, I just need one job to make the minimum requirement so I can qualify for health insurance the following year.’ And I could not get one single job. Sure enough, 2021 came and went [and I] lost my health insurance.”

“[The producer said], ‘Ke, Just be patient. You just wait,'” Quan said. “The movie came out in March of last year and my life has changed.”
