Ke Huy Quan completed his incredible career comeback at The Oscars as he earned the Best Supporting Actor award for his role in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

The 51-year-old Hollywood veteran – who took a decades long hiatus from acting – got emotional as he hit the podium to accept the highest honor in his career.

He concluded the speech by tearfully telling all the struggling actors to not give up on their dreams as he said: ‘Dreams are something you have to believe in. I almost gave up on mine. 

‘To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive. Thank you, thank you so much for welcoming me back. I love you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!’ 

Quan beat out an impressive field including: Brendan Gleeson – The Banshees of Inisherin, Brian Tyree Henry – Causeway, Judd Hirsch – The Fabelmans, and Barry Keoghan – The Banshees of Inisherin.

Quan portrays Waymond Wang in Everything Everywhere All At Once, who is the husband of Michelle Yeoh’s leading character Evelyn Quan Wang whose benevolence comes off as naïveté. 

The talented actor made his name starring in his first role as Short Round in Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom back in 1984.

He took 20 year break from acting as ‘the phone didn’t ring’ and later attended film school at the University of Southern California and found success as an assistant director and stunt coordinator, although he always wished that he could begin acting again.

Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio triumphed as the film earned the first Oscar of the night in the Best Animated Feature category.

The 58-year-old filmmaker hit the stage to accept the honor for the new take on the classic story of a wooden puppet brought to life at the star-studded event in Hollywood.

The film beat out heavy competition including: Marcel the Shell With Shoes On, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, The Sea Beast, and Turning Red.

Guillermo addressed the crowd as he said: ‘Animation is cinema. Animation is ready to be taken to the next step. We are all ready for it. Please help us. Keep animation in the conversation. I would like to thank Netflix for their faith to make this movie. 

‘And I want to dedicate this to the love of my life, my wife Kim, my kids, and my mom and pop, they’re not here anymore, but they are here with me, and I’m your son and I love you. Thank you.’

Iconic role: Quan’s first role was  as Short Round in Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom back in 1984, as he is pictured with Harrison Ford

The Netflix film is centered around a father’s wish magically brings a wooden boy to life in Italy, giving him a chance to care for the child. 

The 95th Academy Awards are being hosted by late night chat show host Jimmy Kimmel and are being held at the regular venue of the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.

The 55-year-old comedian began the event by dropping in a la Top Gun: Maverick and continuing on with a hilarious monologue where he touched on several subjects including the return of audiences to cinemas, first time nominees, poked fun at director James Cameron for not showing up, and even referenced the infamous Will Smith slap of Chris Rock at last year’s ceremony.

Top Gun: Maverick has been nominated for six Oscars including Best Picture, in a sign that Hollywood is finally listening to audiences and honoring box office hits instead of arthouse favorites.

The movie starring Tom Cruise is nominated for Best Picture along with Elvis, Avatar: The Way of Water, All Quiet On The Western Front and The Fabelmans.

While Cruise missed out on a nomination for Best Actor, the nomination for Best Picture could bring him his first Academy Award. 

However, one notable absence from the star-studded show was Cruise as it was reported by ET ahead of the show that will be absent from cinema’s biggest night due to him being back on set overseas for Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part II in the UK.

Despite the blockbuster being recognized it was  Everything Everywhere All At Once led the pack with the most nominations with 11 and The Banshees of Inisherin earned nine nominations. The two films swept the Golden Globes earlier this month.

Elvis, by Baz Luhrmann, has eight nominations, including one for Austin Butler. 

Man with the plan:  Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio triumphed as the film earned the first Oscar of the night in the Best Animated Feature category

Master of ceremonies:  The 95th Academy Awards are being hosted by late night chat show host Jimmy Kimmel and are being held at the regular venue of the Dolby Theater in Hollywood

Best Actress at the Oscars will be a toss-up between Cate Blanchett in Tar and Michelle Yeoh, who won the award at the Golden Globes for her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once. 

Ana De Armas also earned a nomination for her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe in Blonde.  

While Cruise missed out on a nomination for Best Actor, Austin Butler (Elvis)  Brendan Fraser (The Whale) and Bill Nighy (Living) all received nods. 

All Quiet On The Western Front, a German-produced film, earned multiple nominations, as did Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, including Best Original Song.

Angela Bassett is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and as is Jamie Lee Curtis for Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Winners will be voted on by the roughly 10,000 actors, producers, directors and film craftspeople who make up the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

The academy added more women and people of color to its ranks after the #OscarsSoWhite uproars of 2015 and 2016, and it increased membership from outside the United States.

Flying high: Top Gun: Maverick has been nominated for six Oscars including Best Picture, in a sign that Hollywood is finally listening to audiences and honoring box office hits instead of arthouse favorites 

Big favorite: However, Everything Everywhere All At Once led the pack with the most nominations with 11 

This year, seven of the 20 acting nominees were people of color including Yeoh’s Everything Everywhere All At Once castmates Ke Huy Quan and Stephanie Quan.

The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences will surely celebrate a best-picture field populated with blockbusters; according to data firm Comscore, their collective domestic box office of $1.574 billion is the most ever at the time of nominations. 

Last year’s awards had been looking like a comeback edition before ‘the slap’ came to define the ceremony. In the aftermath, the academy banned Will Smith from attending for the next 10 years. 

Though he could have still been nominated, Smith’s performance as a runaway slave in Emancipation didn’t catch on with voters.

But larger concerns are swirling around the movie business. Last year saw flashes of triumphant resurrection for theaters, like the success of Top Gun: Maverick, but less stellar results for most dramas.

Partially due to an inconsistent stream of major releases, ticket sales for the year recovered only about 70percent of pre-pandemic business. 

Stocks for streaming services, meanwhile have plunged as Wall Street looked to streaming services to earn profits, not just add subscribers.

Last year’s Oscar broadcast drew 16.6 million viewers, according to Nielsen, up from the record-low audience of 10.5 million for the pandemic-marred 2021 telecast.
