Asian American
actors are increasingly finding more opportunities in Asia, particularly
in Hong Kong, where San Francisco-born Daniel Wu found stardom. And as
the Asian market becomes more important to Hollywood studios, actors
with recognition in Asia (like Hawaii-born Maggie Q) can be an asset to
Hollywood films. Meanwhile, Korean production companies are looking to
Korean American filmmakers to bridge the gap between Asian and American
markets, resulting in films like West 32nd and Never Forever.
This panel will discuss the unique versatility of Asian American actors
and filmmakers and the opportunities that potentially await them on
both sides of the Pacific.
