Golden Globe Winner Hails from Alhambra High School

Alhambra High School alum Ke Huy Quan won a Golden Globe last month for his performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once. After a 20-year break from acting, e Goonies star felt inspired to return to his craft after seeing other Asian actors enjoy the spotlight in 2018’s hit Crazy Rich Asians. During his hiatus from the profession, Quan graduated from USC’s lm school and began a successful behindthe-scenes career as stunt coordinator and assistant director.

Quan’s movie debut came in the 1984 Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom blockbuster, playing opposite Harrison Ford before he appeared in e Goonies the following year. Quan’s attorney is fellow Goonies’ star Je Cohen, who says the pair is open to starring in a Goonies sequel if a studio is interested in bringing back the franchise. Audiences may be seeing more of our Alhambra High alum because his Golden Globe win and the rise of productions featuring Asian actors makes his future bright.
