Stephanie Hsu, who joined the cast of 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' as Mei Lin for its third season, says the Black Lives Matter movement has inspired her to stop “deleting” herself as Asian actress.

“For so long, I never really intended to be on Broadway. A lot of that had to do with the fact that no one looked like me, so I kind of deleted it from my realm of possibility,” she continued. “And I've never really let race get in my way because if I thought about it for too long, I think I would just be sad and feel like it would be impossible.”

Hsu added, “My way of coping was always like, 'If this is something you want to [do] . . . don't even ask that silly question. Just do it, just go. Just find people that you love working with and make things that you're passionate about.'" Cast members from "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" pose in the press room with the trophy for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series during the 26th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.
