Interview: The Daniels Talk Everything Everywhere All at Once

With only a couple of feature films under their belt, Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert – AKA The Daniels – have created a very clear style. Swiss Army Man was a wonderfully weird buddy comedy with a twist. And now, the two have crafted something magical. Everything Everywhere All at Once is a genre-bending adventure. It features a brilliant performance from the film’s lead, Michelle Yeoh. As well as a number of fantastic performances from Jamie Lee Curtis, Stephanie Hsu, Ke Huy Quan, and James Hong. It’s original, emotional, funny, and perhaps a little insane in the best of ways. This is a wild flick!

We recently had the pleasure to sit down with both of The Daniels, and it was a delight to speak about this engaging film. The two opened up about why they wanted to tell their own multiverse story, and not take on what we’ve seen with Marvel. They also discussed working with this amazing cast and finding the right story to tell with Michelle Yeoh as the star. It’s clear the two had a passion for making this inventive cinematic experience, and frankly, I hope that audiences seek it out. If you want something truly original, you’ve got your chance to witness this mind-blowing feature yourself. Check out Everything Everywhere All at Once this Friday when this daring story opens in wide release.
