Although Jackson didn’t reveal many details about the film, he did express his appreciation for lead actor Ben Wang. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jackson commented that he enjoyed working on the project.

Lovers of the TV series “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” understand that the attractive women working at Quark’s bar, including M’Pella, played by Cathy DeBuono, were more than just decorative elements. However, in real life, DeBuono demonstrated her mix of beauty, intelligence, and courage when she assisted in capturing a serial killer. On a 2024 episode of “Dateline” titled “The Girl With the Hibiscus Tattoo,” DeBuono shared her encounter with a predator living in the Hollywood Hills who disguised himself as a casting agent to trap his victims.
