Filmmaker Daniel Kwan Explained Why He Was Interested in Making a Movie About the Multiverse
The movie, which has a score of 93 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, focuses on Evelyn Quan Wang (Michelle Yeoh) unexpectedly navigating the multiverse. The film's co-directors and co-writers, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, discussed what led them to make a film about multi-universes during a 2023 panel at the Lincoln Center.
Kwan explained that he became familiar with David Lewis' concept of modal realism after watching the 1986 documentary Sherman's March. Kwan said that he and Scheinert let the idea "percolate" and shot "a couple short films" regarding the multiverse.
In addition, Kwan said one of the reasons he's "drawn to" the idea of multiple universes is because of his ADHD diagnosis.
"I realize now I have ADHD and every time I see an image, my brain just instantly refracts it into 100 different possibilities, like, I don't know why my brain does that, and it's very overwhelming all the time, but I find a lot of comfort in organizing the chaos, and so the multiverse and the idea of infinity is so fascinating to me," said Kwan during the panel.
Kwan referenced that the film also has quiet, tender moments about Evelyn's connection with different versions of her husband, Waymond Wang (Ke Huy Quan), and their daughter, Joy Wang (Stephanie Hsu). He said he believed that in the present day most people feel "completely immobile" by having to make decisions, which makes them want to "escape in social media or in our work."
"This film is us trying to refocus our priorities and figure out, 'Okay, how do we pay attention to the things that truly matter? How do we pay attention to the ones we love?' Because in a world that has weaponized and kind of tried to profit off of our attention, one of the most beautiful, powerful things you can do is give someone that attention, to pay attention," said Kwan. "It's literally a toll that you're paying, and if you can pick and choose the right people to pay attention to or the right things to pay attention to, that's such an important thing for all of us to learn how to do right now. And this film was us exploring that through the multiverse."
