William Morris Agency Wants to Hug It Out with Rising China Actress Liu Yifei
April 27th, 2007 by dd
Young Chinese actress Liu Yifei has signed with William Morris Agency, a top American talent agency. So basically, Liu is now a ‘playah’ in the game.
She follows in the footsteps of WMA’s other high profile China talent, Zhang Ziyi, who signed in 2005 and soon thereafter landed the lead role in Memoirs of a Geisha.
So what coveted ‘gift’ is Liu Yifei receiving for signing? Speculation is she’s landed a lead role in the upcoming The Forbidden Kingdom, which starring none other than Jackie Chan and Jet Li.
DaDump is guessing that Grace Chen who heads William Morris China wined and dined and used her immeasurable charm to lure Liu Yifei for her traditional Chinese beauty and limitless potential as an international film star.
… and if things go awry, Grace can always soothe bruised egos by “huggin’ it out”.
