Andy Lau is a certified star, especially to Asian audiences. A legend in Hong Kong cinema, he has a career that spans over four decades, beginning with early hits in the 80s like Boat People and As Tears Go By before establishing himself as a full-blown action staple in modern films like the Internal Affairs trilogy and The Bodyguard. American audiences will likely recognize him from the controversial Matt Damon-led 2016 film The Great Wall, the only time Lau has really starred in a Hollywood film.
