Zine Tseng and Rosalind Chao sat down with Tumblr person @overchers to discuss their experiences playing different iterations of the same character, and put together a three course meal to pair with a viewing of 3 Body Problem.
Actor Jun Yu makes his feature film debut in Disney’s highly anticipated, live action adaptation of Mulan opposite Yifei Liu, Jet Li, Tzi Ma and Rosalind Chao. Jun is a scene-stealer as Cricket, Mulan’s comrade and confidant as she enters training military training and war. Jun is a fresh face in the entertainment industry—while working on his college degree at USC, he landed his first professional audition, which happened to be for Mulan, and got the role. He headed off to film for nearly all of 2019 and has been working ever since. In television, Jun most recently recurred as Pete on ABC’s hit comedy series Fresh off the Boat alongside Randall Park and Constance Wu. In addition to working in front of the camera, Jun has a passion for music and is a rapper in his down time. He is currently working on his debut EP, and notes some of his musical influences are Mac Miller, Andre 3000, Lauryn Hill, and J. Cole. Jun took the time to answer some of our questions about Mulan. Check it out:
There’s no specific scene or moment, but I’m excited to see fans watch the action sequences.
Oh man. I’m sorry, but I’m leaving the army. I’m not as brave as Cricket, so I would change my name to Hopper, and just live a quiet life on a farm.
Mulan was my first audition ever. So, I had no idea what to expect. But the whole thing was very basic. I went in, got a callback, did what I did from the first audition, and then, soon enough got a call that I got the role.
It doesn’t seem real. I feel that whenever I think about everything, I was just imagining it. But I truly feel blessed more than anything. I hope audiences see how much hard work and dedication that everyone who was part of the project put in. There are so many specific jobs and without them, the film would not have turned out so beautifully.
Call time is usually 5 am. You get to a location and get dressed into costumes which takes a couple people to help put it on you. Then, you head over to make-up and hair which could easily take 40min. Afterward, I usually go to where the food and coffee are. I’ll chug 4 double espresso shots to feel my heart race, then prepare for whatever scene we are shooting that day. Somedays you ride horses and others you’re on a wire and get thrown. Then we get done around 5 pm and head back to the hotel and the cycle continues.
Honestly, I’m really excited to see the Little Mermaid live action! A story told mostly underwater would be absolutely stunning, but also extremely terrifying. My one fear in life is the ocean, so maybe the first step to conquering that fear would be to see this film.
There were a lot of moments, but there was a day where Nelson Lee (who plays the Chancellor) was wearing a Benihana type of hat, and so my cast mates and I would try to “Kobe” orange peels into it! So, the entire day Nelson would have pieces of 15 orange peels without even realizing it, but would constantly ask about a citrus smell.
Cheeks, Authenticity, Jicama
I think right now, I’m just excited for my mother to see the film. She can’t really wrap her head around her son being in a movie—let alone Disney’s Mulan.
Thanks for taking the time, Jun! Mulan is available for purchase on Disney+.

hallowyeet asked:
since you're dead boys do you only solve crimes for dead people? Is there a group of girls doing the same thing? Or is it even more opposite and cases you can't cover are solved by the Alive Girl Detectives? When will the Nonbinary Coma Detectives be revealed?
netflix answered:
I'm crying with laughter
