As she reaches new heights of acclaim for her dazzling, Oscar-nominated performance in the breakout smash EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE, now is the perfect time to revisit the sensational career of Michelle Yeoh. Before conquering Hollywood, the Malaysian-born actor established herself as one of Hong Kong cinema’s fiercest action heroes—performing whirlwind martial-arts choreography with an acrobatic grace that reflected her early training as a dancer. Whether executing superhero stunts in Johnnie To’s action classic THE HEROIC TRIO or propelling the wuxia genre to unprecedented international success with the megahit CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, Yeoh commands the screen with astonishing power and charisma.
