The Director of ‘Moon Knight’ Responded to Simu Liu’s Criticism of the Show’s Poor Mandarin
“There's still room, if one day we're expanding this, and I think we're all ears.”
‘Moon Knight’ director Mohamed Diab recently responded to Simu Liu’s criticism of the show’s poor Mandarin in episode two of the series.
In an interview with Screen Rant, Diab said, “In episode 2, Harrow was speaking Mandarin, and Simu Liu commented that this is not accurate. I wasn't upset. I actually told him, ‘Thank you for pointing that out.’ We had an expert, and we tried to do our best. But you know what? Next time, we're going to do better.’ There's still room, if one day we're expanding this, and I think we're all ears. You won't meet anyone who believes in representation and that everyone's voice should be heard more than me. Definitely, when we have round 2 - if I'm allowed, and if there is round 2 - we're gonna hear every comment and try to make everyone even more pleased.”
Simu’s original comment as well as the referenced scene from the series can be seen in the following slides.
