Evelyn Quan Wang is a fictional character and the protagonist of the 2022 absurdist comedy-drama film Everything Everywhere All at Once. Portrayed by Michelle Yeoh and created by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert[a], Evelyn is a Chinese-American immigrant and laundromat owner who, while being audited by the IRS, discovers that she must connect with parallel universe versions of herself to prevent an omnicidal nihilist version of her daughter from another dimension from destroying her universe, and the multiverse beyond it. Yeoh also plays numerous alternate-dimension versions of Evelyn.
The filmmakers initially sought Jackie Chan for the role of Evelyn before the script was revised to feature a female protagonist,[1] inspired by the works of Hong Kong film director Wong Kar-wai, the children's book Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, and the video game Everything. Yeoh garnered widespread critical acclaim for her performance, winning the Best Actress at the 95th Academy Awards.[2][3][4][5]
