Eddie Peng Sets Another Chinese Movie on Fire: OPERATION MEKONG

You can’t deny it! Eddie Peng is one of the best and most sough-after Chinese movie actors out there. In fact, his latest movie in cinema, Operation Mekong, is still on a hot rampage!

In this movie now showing, Eddie Peng stars as the intelligence officer Fang Xinwu with a dark past. Together with star Zhang Hanyu as captain of the narcotics task force, they swear to bring justice down on the notorious drug syndicate behind the Mekong River Massacre which the film is based on.

Directed by Dante Lam, Operation Mekong is Eddie’s third collaboration with the director’s action movies after Unbeatable (2013) and To the Fore (2015).

Over the last 10 years, Eddie has been working with renowned directors and the brightest stars of the Chinese movie industry. Aside from Dante Lam, he has also worked with Benny Chan in one of his recent movies (Call of Heroes). After his big screen debut on a Taiwanese youth drama Exit No.6 (2006), he has since taken up major roles after the other. Displaying true versatility of his acting abilities, he has played roles from rugged action movies to the sparkly RomCom world. That makes him popular not just with the ladies but with men hungry for action too! No wonder he has million fans on Facebook alone! (Including you, we bet!)

To name a few of his remarkable performances, His role as a the charming landlord’s son in My DNA Says I Love You (2007) has proven his talent and potential as a rising star, being only his second film. In 2011, Eddie Peng got his titular role in Jump Ashin!, an homage to a troubled young gymnast where he underwent rigorous training to achieve the proper build of the character. His hard work definitely paid off though, after being nominated as Best Actor at the prestigious Golden Horse Awards that year.  The year after that, he starred in 4 consecutive movies: LOVE, Tai Chi 0, Tai Chi Hero, and Cold War where he became part of all-star casts.

But if we’re going to talk about his most notable roles, we surely cannot miss Rise of the Legend and Unbeatable. From Kung Fu to Mix Martial Arts, Eddie Peng can really deliver a committed and remarkable performance. For these roles he also underwent huge physical transformations! The results are a satisfying display of charismatic fighting action!
