Always Be My Maybe: Ali Wong & Randall Park Interview
Imagine bumping into your childhood sweetheart after not speaking to them for 15 years. How would you react? Would you embrace them with open arms, or barely acknowledge their existence? Netflix’s new romantic comedy Always Be My Maybe answers just that. The film stars Ali Wong and Randall Park as Sasha and Marcus, childhood friends who had a falling out and haven’t spoken to each other in 15 years. When Sasha returns to San Francisco to open a new restaurant, the two reconnect and realize there may be something more to their relationship.
With Always Be my Maybe now on Netflix, I had the opportunity to sit down with Ali Wong & Randall Park to discuss their new rom-com. During our conversation, the two talked about their collaborative process with Netflix, taking inspiration from their personal lives, using it in the script and explained how they got Keanu Reeves to join the cast. We also played a fun game of would you rather.
Check out what the two had to say in our interview above, and see the topics we discussed followed by the official synopsis of the film below. For more, you can read our full review here.

Childhood friends Sasha and Marcus have a falling out and don’t speak for 15 years. But when Sasha, now a celebrity chef in Los Angeles, returns to her hometown of San Francisco to open a new restaurant, she runs into her old pal - a happily complacent musician still living at home and working for his dad. Though the two are reluctant to reconnect, they soon find the old sparks - and maybe some new ones - are there.
