“On a gut level, I'm a superhero fan,” author Yang told Entertainment Weekly after having written comics for both DC and Marvel. “At the heart of the superhero genre is this mixture of the fantastic and the mundane. I think that really reflects the Asian American experience in particular and the immigrant child experience in general. Many of us feel like we live between two different worlds. For me, as a child I spoke one language at home and another at school. I have a name at home and another at school. I lived under two different sets of cultural expectations.”

Ironically, the trio who starred in the multiverse generational trauma film "Everything Everywhere All at Once" lead the Disney+ series in a similar superhero vein. The writers and directors of "Everything Everywhere All at Once," the Daniels, previously told IndieWire that they were approached by Disney to direct the Marvel series "Loki."

"There were meetings with Marvel about 'Loki' that we didn't even take," Daniel Scheinert said at the 2022 SXSW Film Festival.

Co-director Kwan added: “We were trying to make our own multiverse movie. No, the meeting was set and we went, but when we did we said we probably weren't going to do it. We were trying to make our own movie at the same time… They were trying to do Douglas Adams-style sci-fi. It was kind of scary to get those offers and go, "Damn, this is what we're working on!"
