Simu Liu is calling out the Hollywood industry for the lack of visibility of Asian actors in cinema.
In a social media post, the star of Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings shared his thoughts on the lack of representation of his community.
“Put some asians in literally anything right now. the amount of backslide in our representation onscreen is f**king appalling,” Liu shared on Threads . “Studios think we’re risky.”
Liu shared his view on the industry after reading a post calling for more Asian men to be cast in romantic lead roles. The actor pointed to titles like Minari , Farewell , Everything Everywhere All at Once , Crazy Rich Asians and his own Marvel movie as examples of films that did well in the box office.
“Every single one a financial success,”
