Favorite Chinese actors and actresses.........

If you are a Lover of Chinese Movies and Chinese Cinema, then you probably know that the Chinese Movie industry is one of the best in the world. Here are some of my favorite Chinese actors and actresses............



Jacky Chan.......

You have seen him in recent times in the Rush hour movies, but i am a big fan of some of his earlier classics like the Drunken Masters, i cannot wait for his new movie the Karate Kid with Jaden Smith, which comes out in June.



Jet Li......

Probably one of the best Chinese actors of all time, you have seen him in movies such as Romeo must die, and Lethal weapons 4, but his best roles were in Chinese Movies such as Fist of Legends and the once upon a time series about the Legendary Chinese folk hero Wong Fei Hung.



Chow Yun Fat........

This Hong Kong native have stared in Hollywood hits such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon , Pirates of the Caribbean 3, but my favorite role by Chow is John Lee in the Replacement Killer.



Zhang Ziyi ..............

You know she can kick some serious ass if you have seen Rush hour 2, Zhang's other credits include "Memoirs of a Geisha," and "House of Flying Daggers."




Maggie Cheung.........

With over 70 film credit under her belt, this Hong Kong native is listed as one of the best oriental actress in cinema history, She is the first Asian woman to win a prize at the Cannes Film festival.
I love her roles in the Police stories series.




Takeshi Kaneshiro.......

He has been the dream guy for a lot of young girls all over Asia for years, but this Taiwanese Actor who is also half Japanese, has also acted in some of my favorite movies of all time. some of his film credits include the The red Cliff, House of flying daggers, and the warlords which comes out this month in U.S Cinemas.
