A Profile of the “Saturday Night Live” star Bowen Yang, who co-hosts the “Las Culturistas” podcast with Matt Rogers and will appear in the upcoming movie “Wicked.” Michael Schulman reports.
During “Wicked,” he’d spend hours getting into his elaborate costume, makeup, and toupee. Sometimes he’d sit in his trailer all day without being called to set once—standard procedure for a big-budget movie, but the jet lag and the tedium wore him down. “It was a gradual accumulation of idling, getting dressed up with nowhere to go, feeling like it was sanding down whatever I had preserved from the week before at ‘S.N.L.’—whatever was left over of my psychic tolerance,” he said.
” He remembered looking at Yang during the “vows”: “It was one of the first of many times where I was, like, I think you’re the only person that gets it.” Stephanie Hsu remembered Yang as having “incredibly funny hands,” but said that being premed put him at a remove from the comedy scene: “He sort of had one foot in and one foot out.” At his commencement, in 2012, he watched other students collect academic awards and wondered why he’d invested all his passion in an extracurricular activity.
