After trying his acting luck in school, he finally got his first job.
The 51-year-old has 17 acting credits, according to IMDb. Huy made his debut when he was a youngster, but did not return to action until early 2020.

Everything Everywhere All at Once, a 2022 movie, was Ke’s other recent success.
The relationship between Ke Huy and Corinna
On the set of 2046 in Hong Kong, she met Ke Huy Quan. Ke Huy worked for stunt coordinator Corey Yeun, while Echo previously worked for Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai. He served as Deputy Director in 2046.
Before getting married, the couple dated for two years.
Sources claim that Corinna was quite furious with Ke after he brought the fanny pack home to practice for the film and damaged several items there.
From their bedroom to the living room, he would take the bag with him everywhere.
A biography in the Guardian on Ke claims that Quan later collaborated with action choreographer Corey Yuen on such films as X-Men (the actor is skilled in martial arts) and served as assistant director on Wong Kar-opulent wai’s love story 2046.
The pair live in Los Angeles and have been together for 22 years since Wong originally suggested they go on a date.
The couple appears to have no children as of yet. In addition, neither of them has openly stated that they intend to have children.
