Quan plays a hit man turned real estate agent in the action-comedy film directed by Jonathan Eusebio, while DeBose plays his former partner in crime — and love interest — who comes back into his life on Valentine’s Day to settle some scores.

After the old partner that he had left for dead (played by Academy Award winner Ariana DeBose, who presented Quan with his own Oscar) re-enters his life, Marvin is thrust back into a world of ruthless hitmen and must reckon with the pervasive influence of his volatile crime lord brother, Knuckles (Daniel Wu).

Director Jonathan Eusebio says Ke Huy Quan's emotional attachment to his hard-won Everything Everywhere All at Once Oscar inspired an epic Love Hurts fight scene in which Quan's character risks his life to protect his "real estate agent of the year" award.
