Chow Yun-Fat because of his looks, charisma, and talent as an actor is considered one of the finest actors Asia has produced. Beginning his career in TVB dramas, he continued his career in Hong Kong movies, and went on to star in several American movies as well. He once made 10 movies in one year in Hong Kong, and is noted for his strong work ethic. People working with him in his US films continually comment on how hard he works, and what a "nice guy" he is. Now in his 50s he has turned a corner in his career and in some movies does character roles such as in "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End". This has given him a opportunity to show how complete is his versatility as an actor. |

Huang Shi" Chow Yun-Fat will join with his
co-star of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden
Dragon" Michelle Yeoh. Asked about
