The Love Hurts star went on to joke that he would love to get on Tom Cruise’s list of Coconut cake.

The actor went on to explain, "It's quite amazing because sometimes I would say, "Aw, [there's] this new gadget that just came out.' And I would really, I'd want to buy it. Sure enough, it's really crazy to think about it, then that present, that gift would come.” Quan continued to say, "And it would be exactly what I want. It's happened multiple times."

Previously, while talking to The Guardian, Quan shared that Spielberg has been quite consistent in sending gifts. The duo worked together for the first time when the former was only 13 years old. The movie star further said, “He gave me my first job and, so many years later, he has not forgotten me. Every time I needed help, he’s always there.”
