7 Highlights From Ke Huy Quan's Nearly 40-Year Acting Career

In 1984, Quan made his onscreen debut as Short Round in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." Initially, he only attended the audition to support his younger brother, who was vying for the role, but a casting director quickly decided Quan was exactly who they were looking for. Starring opposite Harrison Ford, then 12-year-old Quan played the driver, confidant, traveling companion, and fellow adventurer to Indiana Jones.
