Entertainment Weekly Wrote:Do the truffle shuffle! Jeff Cohen inked the deal for his former Goonies costar Ke Huy Quan to star in the acclaimed multiverse epic Everything Everywhere All at Once.
Cohen, who played Chunk opposite Quan's Data in the beloved 1985 film, left acting in the 1990s and has since become an entertainment lawyer to the stars, including his former costar. Quan revealed that it was Cohen who represented him for the role of Waymond Wang — his first major role in some 20 years, one that has generated much awards buzz this season.
"When the producer of our movie was trying to make my deal, he said he never imagined that he'd have to talk to Chunk and Data for his movie," Quan told fellow stars Austin Butler, Colin Farrell, Brendan Fraser, Jeremy Pope, and Adam Sandler in The Hollywood Reporter's Actor Roundtable. When Sandler asked, "Chunk get you a good deal, by the way?," Quan called Cohen an "outstanding lawyer."
