There's been lots of talk about "Quiz Lady" co-stars Sandra Oh and Awkwafina playing against type in the odd-couple sibling comedy, but director Jessica Yu says she didn't see it that way.
Yu says that while Awkwafina made a name for herself playing over-the-top characters and Oh is better known for portraying over-achievers, she didn't think either actress was stepping too far outside her comfort zone. "I always sensed that energy she has underneath -- a lot of it is a very physical energy. And she can be incredibly funny," Yu said in an interview after the premiere.
Oh's Canadianness was also on full display the day that scene was shot, Yu said: it had just been announced that she would be inducted as an officer of the Order of Canada.
