Paul Sun-Hyung Lee has sat down with host Katee Sackoff to discuss his time on Star Wars working on the Disney+ shows The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka.
In today’s episode, I’m chatting with my friend Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, who you probably know from Kim’s Convenience and just about every Star Wars show out there right now (The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka) as Captain Carson Teva.
Paul’s journey from an immigrant family to fulfilling his nerd dream of being a part of the Star Wars universe is amazing, and we dive deep into what it’s like growing up in Canada, deciding to be an actor against his parent’s wishes, and having to navigate Hollywood as an Asian actor.
We also talk about his passion for collecting, the joy he finds in the Star Wars fandom, and why there’s no Carson Teva action figure! Paul is just one of the kindest and most genuine people I’ve met, and I can’t wait for you all to hear his story. Enjoy this fantastic conversation with one of the best, and stick around for the Hindsight where I answer your comments and emails.
