StudiosBC: What intrigued you about 'What's Love Got to Do with It?': First of all, having the chance to work with Shekhar Kapur, one of the great filmmakers, who has worked with [the likes of] Heath Ledger and Cate Blanchett, any actor would jump at the chance.
As a young actor being able to be a lead in a rom-com, especially as a half-Asian actor, is a rare thing. The opportunity to do that and hopefully open doors for future generations as it was a big deal representation-wise. The fact that it was a rom-com that had a bit of emotional core, and it wasn't some fluffy rom-com. It was a family drama for me. It's about this guy who's trying to be a dutiful son, and there was a lot of emotion.
How often do these like opportunities come up playing a lead in a rom-com? You've done a lot of other genres like action and drama.
