‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Star Simu Liu Slams Hollywood for Backsliding on Asian Representation

On Sunday, November 23, 2025, Simu Liu used the platform Threads to discuss the lack of leading roles for Asian men in Hollywood. He shared examples of other Asian actors like Manny Jacinto, John Chu, and Daniel Dae Kim facing similar struggles, and urged the industry to cast more Asian men in romantic lead roles. Liu expressed frustration with the recent decline in Asian representation on screen, calling it “appalling.” He then highlighted the success of films like Minari, The Farewell, Past Lives, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Crazy Rich Asians, and his own film, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, as proof that audiences will support movies with Asian leads. He also pointed out that white male actors are often given multiple chances after a film fails, while Asian actors don’t receive the same opportunities.

3 Best Movies To See In Theaters This Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is always a popular time to go to the movies, and this year promises to be the same. I’ve picked out three films that should appeal to a lot of different people: an action-packed blockbuster, a fantasy musical, and the sequel to a beloved animated movie.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Ranking The Vulcan Comedy Episodes

As a huge Trek fan, I’m really loving Spock’s journey in Strange New Worlds. They’re doing a fantastic job showing us how he becomes the Spock we all know and love from The Original Series, played by Leonard Nimoy. It’s fascinating to watch him grow and explore that inner conflict between his Vulcan logic and his human emotions – it’s really setting the stage for everything that comes later.

Joel Edgerton’s Anti-Charisma Has Become His Greatest Strength

It’s surprising to realize this actor has appeared in so many major films. He first gained recognition playing Uncle Owen in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and has since been in movies like King Arthur, Exodus: Gods and Kings (where his casting caused some debate), The Great Gatsby, and Smokin’ Aces. I always thought he was in Blackhawk Down, but it was actually Zero Dark Thirty. For a long time, it was hard to categorize him as an actor. Was he a leading man, a character actor, or a strong supporting player? He never quite became a traditional movie star, and didn’t seem interested in that level of fame, but he often played very similar roles. He consistently portrayed quiet, stoic characters – reliable when he was on the good side, and unyielding when he was the villain. He excelled in roles where his reserved nature contrasted with more outgoing co-stars. He’s a great match for Chiwetel Ejiofor in Kinky Boots, and in the now-classic film Warrior, he’s captivating as a quiet high school teacher competing in an MMA tournament against his troubled war veteran brother (played by Tom Hardy).
