Submission declined on 25 February 2024 by S0091 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

- Comment: Interviews are primary sources so cannot be used to establish notability and IMDB is not a reliable source so should not be used. Only one of the Deadline articles makes mention of Lee. The ones that do not mention him are not useful so should not be used, the one that does is a brief mention and they are all about a show which has yet to occur.
