Gong Li’s Biggest Hollywood Challenge
Gong Li is one of China's most popular actresses. She is also making headway into Hollywood.
She starred as a Japanese escort in "Memoirs of a Geisha", an ethnic Chinese money launderer in "Miami Vice" and as a Japanese woman married to the uncle of a serial killer in "Young Hannibal."
Recently she performed in Chollywood's "Curse of the Golden Flower."
Her biggest challenge - “I very rarely portray a real Chinese character, like a
native Beijing resident, in Hollywood.”
Even in Miami Vice – Gong said: "Even though she looks Asian, her character, her thoughts, her thinking aren't Asian at all. That's hard to master."
English is not the problem…tackling non-Chinese characters is the problem.
But, isn't that why it's called acting?
Gong Li has been cast in another Hollywood movie for next year, but declined to give details.
