Kindness in the chaos: Daniels talk about the core of "Everything Everywhere All At Once"

"Everything Everywhere All At Once" is now showing in over 80 cinemas in the Philippines

These days, filmmaker Daniel Kwan says, much of art is broadly struggling to confront two things: “One is this feeling of everything happening all at once—how can you put that in a story in a way that is meaningful? And the other is climate change.”

"Everything Everywhere All At Once" is most obviously Daniels' attempt at trying to encapsulate the first part, but you can sense the latter lurking in the background as well. Of course, in Daniels' language, if climate dread is an inspiration, it takes on a decidedly different look: in Jobu's (Stephanie Hsu) evil plan, everything bagel-void threatens to swallow the multiverse and destroy us all. “This project came out of our own anxieties about living in the modern world, and I think everyone I know is trying to capture that,” Kwan says. 

Michelle Yeoh blockbuster film ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’ is hitting PH Cinemas this June

The movie everyone is talking about is finally coming to the Philippines on the big screens. TBA Studios secures the exclusive distribution rights to A24’s big-hearted sci-fi adventure Everything Everywhere All at Once to be shown in local cinemas on June 29, 2022.

The highly anticipated film stars Michelle Yeoh (Crazy Rich Asians, Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings) as an exhausted Chinese immigrant woman named Evelyn who can’t seem to finish her taxes. It doesn’t help that a variant of her happy go-lucky husband takes over and tells her she has to save the multiverse.

As "Santa," Michelle Yeoh Reveals Funny Side in "Last Christmas"

Coming off the success of Crazy Rich Asians, legendary Asian superstar Michelle Yeoh stars as “Santa,” the wistful-yet-stern store-owner of Yuletide Wonderful where Emilia Clarke’s Kate works,  in Universal Pictures’ new romantic comedy Last Christmas.

In Last Christmas, Kate (Clarke) harrumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop. Tom (Henry Golding) seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart … and you gotta have faith.

Michelle Yeoh Upholds Family Legacy in "Crazy Rich Asians"

Real power doesn’t raise its voice. That’s what Michelle Yeoh suggested to director Jon M. Chu in their initial explorations of her character, Eleanor Young, the feisty matriarch, in Warner Bros. Pictures’ new romantic comedy “Crazy Rich Asians.”   

Chu recalls, “She said, I don’t yell because truly powerful people don’t yell.  They don’t need to move one muscle or expend any energy on you, and that can cut more than anything else.’”  

A striking figure—striking terror, some would say—Eleanor is the epitome of poise and polish, flawless from her coiffure to the point of her bespoke shoes, as only the inimitable Yeoh could portray her.  Her happiness at having her eldest son home is tempered by the fact that he is accompanied by a pretty, young woman whose lineage is questionable, yet Nick seems to be utterly smitten with her.  Eleanor’s thinly veiled attempts to be gracious and polite aren’t enough to hide her obvious displeasure.

Excited about visiting Asia for the first time but nervous about meeting Nick’s family, Rachel is unprepared to learn that Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life.

Next Step In Human Evolution In"Morgan"

From producer Ridley Scott and director Luke Scott, “Morgan” offers a thrilling, visceral and intense movie-going experience starring Kate Mara, Anya Taylor-Joy, Michelle Yeoh, Paul Giamatti, Leslie Rose and Toby Jones, “Morgan” introduces an artificial yet organic being that represents the future in human evolution.

In “Morgan” the inevitable happens, the creation surpasses its creator.  The titular character “Morgan” is played by Anya Taylor-Joy a bioengineered being with synthetic DNA.  At one month, she (it) was walking and talking; at six months, she exceeded her creators’ wildest expectations.  Morgan is enigmatic and unpredictable—a lab-created being with emotional capacity and conflicting traits that blur the line between being human and synthetic.  When “Morgan” suddenly attacked one of her handlers, the company immediately sends Lee Weathers (Kate Mara), a corporate trouble shooter who decides whether Morgan will continue to live or be terminated at once.

She learns that the seemingly innocent “human” who escaped has both infinite promise and incalculable danger
