Bowen Yang opens up about the stress of juggling SNL and Wicked filming schedule

Bowen Yang has shared the challenges of balancing his work on "Saturday Night Live" and the film "Wicked." He revealed that SNL creator Lorne Michaels required him to not miss any shows while filming in London, leading to a demanding schedule. Yang described his intense routine of performing on Saturdays, flying to London on Sundays, and shooting on Mondays and Tuesdays. He admitted this schedule caused him significant stress, resulting in a mental breakdown. Despite the difficulties, Yang expressed pride in his work on both projects. He confirmed he will not repeat the grueling commute and looks forward to future roles, including a remake of "The Wedding Banquet" and "Wicked" Part 2.
