Like Ke Huy, Echo was also working for Kar Wai, and as it turned out, couple got together after the director suggested that they date each other.
Ke Huy and Echo have been together for 22 years, which proves one thing: Wong Kar Wai is not just a film whiz, he’s a damn good matchmaker too.
In a separate interview with Deadline, Ke Huy shared that he is still in touch with the auteur, who was very supportive when he found out that Ke Huy, who got his start in showbiz as a child star in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, had returned to acting.
“He said, ‘That is so wonderful, you’re back where you belong’. So when our movie came out in Hong Kong, I texted him and asked if he had seen it. He did see it and loved my performance in it. He also told me to please thank the Daniels [directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert] for paying homage to his films. It was just very sweet of him,” shared Ke Huy.
