————————————————————————————————————————————————— Tang Wei, is a Chinese actress. She was selected from more than 10,000 actresses to appear in Ang Lee’s Lust, Caution (Winner of the 2007 Golden Lion award) as Wong Chia Chi, co-starring Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Joan Chen, and Leehom Wang. For the role of Wong Chia Chi, she has won in category Best New Performer of Golden Horse award. She has also been nominated for the Independent Spirit Award. In early March 2008 it was reported that some of Tang Wei’s commercial sponsors had dropped her television and print ads due to her performance in the movie Lust, Caution. This included Tang Wei’s forthcoming TV commercials (for skincare among other things). She was set to star in Tian Zhuangzhuang’s big budget period film The Warrior and the Wolf, but due to the Chinese media ban she was replaced by actress Maggie Q. Following this, Tang disappeared from the movie industry for nearly a year. In October 2008, the Hong Kong immigration authority approved her application under Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, thus becoming a resident of Hong Kong. This created more opportunities for her and broadened her career in the media industry. She also has ambitions for the United States and Hollywood as well. In February—nearly a year after she was banned for Lust, Caution—it was announced that Tang would co-star in Crossing Hennessy, a romantic drama, with Jacky Cheung. In November of that same year, it was announced that Tang would be working with Hyun Bin in a new movie. In 2009, during her absence from the movie industry, Tang studied drama at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom. Profile
