Everything everywhere at once wonderfully mimics the experience of comic collecting

The Daniels’ Oscar-winning work, Everything Everywhere All At Once, reflects the unique nature of the avid comic book collector who reads one issue after another.

The idea for the film came about in 2010 when writers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert began researching the topic of the multiverse. After originally writing the script with Jackie Chan in mind as the protagonist, the pair decided to switch to a female protagonist instead and started with actress Michelle Yeoh in mind instead. After casting was finalized, filming on the film began in January 2020 and wrapped two months later in March, just before Covid lockdowns began in America. The film premiered two years later at South by Southwest and was released in theaters by A24 in April.

Everything everywhere at once was a great success

Everything everywhere at once would go on to be a critical and box office success, becoming A24’s highest-grossing film with a worldwide gross of $143.4 million. The film won several Oscars, including:

• Best Actress (Yeoh)
• Best Supporting Actress (Jamie Lee Curtis)
• Best Supporting Actor (Quan)
• Best Director
• Best Original Screenplay
• Best editing

The film also helped revive Ke Huy Quan’s acting career after he retired in 2002. He was set to play prominent roles in the Disney+ series Loki And Kung Fu Panda 4.

Everything everywhere at once leaves Netflix on August 22nd.
