The performer of more than 350 roles in movies and video games James Hong (James Hong) was born on February 22, 1929 in Minneapolis, USA. He studied in Hong Kong and then went to the University of Southern California to study civil engineering. However, on this profile, he never managed to manifest himself - during his studies, he became interested in acting.
After graduation, James Hong starred in film episodes while working as a road construction engineer in Los Angeles. However, seven years later, he gave up construction, completely devoting himself to the film industry. The first films where James Hong acted as an actor were the films Chinatown (1974), Big Trouble in Little China (1986), The Art of War (2000), etc. One of Hong’s most interesting works was his role in the film Golden Child (1986). The film, filled with mystical meanings and comedic moments at the same time, told the story of a social care agent who found a “golden child” with the responsibilities to save the world. James Hong there played not the main, but a bright role, demonstrating his talents in the field of acting.
In 2000, American-Chinese actor James Hong presented his own films to the world audience, acting as a director. This year, the mystical thriller “Destination” was released. A little later, Hong shoots the continuation of this film, without changing the theme of anticipation of events and the fight against death. His most recent work was Dragon Pearls: Evolution (2009). This is already a more vivid film, full of fantasy elements and problems of confronting evil.
James Hong is now over 80 years old. However, he does not change the cinema, working on new films as an actor and as a director. However, even now it is safe to say that he made a huge contribution to the history of American cinema. /
