Oscars due to his support of the Chinese government.The Hong Kong actor presented the award for best song at the Oscars earlier this month (March 12). Prior to the event, a petition was set up by activist Tong Wai-hung, claiming the actor’s involvement in the show “shows contempt for the people of Hong Kong” and that his presence will “damage the image and reputation of the film industry”.The petition, which accrued over 110,000 signatures, emerged following an interview with Yen where he doubled down on his opposition to the 2019 pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong.“It wasn’t a protest, ok, it was a riot,” the actor told GQ. “I’m not going to be here talking about how to change how people feel about it.

Donnie Yen has claimed that Quentin Tarantino made Bruce Lee “cartoonish” in his film, Once Upon A Time In… Hollywood.Indeed, John Wick: Chapter 4 star Yen has said that there was nothing flattering about Tarantino’s version of the deceased Enter The Dragon star on-screen in 2019 movie. The movie may have been an Oscar winner, but Mike Moh’s depiction of Lee cast the Jeet Kune Do master as being pompous on set – and getting beaten up by Brad Pitt’s Cliff Booth.“Everybody is entitled to their opinions.

This is a weird thing to say, considering the studio’s long history of success, but Pixar needs a hit. After the lukewarm (putting it nicely) reception to last year’s “Lightyear,” combined with a pandemic that saw three films get straight to streaming (“Soul,” “Luca,” and “Turning Red”) and one film with an incredibly short theatrical run (“Onward”), it feels like forever since 2019’s “Toy Story 4.” Obviously, Pixar is hoping to buck that trend with the upcoming film, “Elemental.” READ MORE: Pixar Exec Says ‘Lightyear’ Failed Because “We Asked Too Much Of The Audience” As seen in the new trailer for “Elemental,” the film follows the story of a world where the five elements are all personified and live separately.

Tatiana Siegel On a chilly Oscars eve, Donnie Yen has just returned from the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, where he was rehearsing for the Academy Awards along with a slew of fellow global superstar presenters like Spain’s Antonio Banderas and India’s Deepika Padukone. The “John Wick: Chapter 4” scene-stealer, who hails from southern China, feels good about how the following night might unfold, namely for his friend and Hong Kong neighbor Michelle Yeoh. Her victory and that of “Everything Everywhere All at Once” would be a landmark moment for Asian representation, he says.  “I’ve known her for more than 20 years, and that’s one of the reasons I’m here — to support her and share in a possible historical moment,” he says of his “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny” co-star. “And ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ has a lot of Chinese language and it talks about the Chinese heritage, which I find out has been so accepted and embraced here. So, that really warmed my heart. I’m sure hoping for Michelle.”
