Jade Leung

Actor · Born November 23, 1969 (56) · Hong Kong, British Crown Colony

Jade Leung Tsang, born in Hong Kong as Leung Yuk-ying, is a Hong Kong actress known for starring in Kung Fu and action films. She received the 1992 Best New Performer Award at the 11th Hong Kong Film Awards for her role in the 1991 film Black Cat. In 1995, while filming Enemy Shadow, Jade Leung suffered burns to her hand due to a mistimed explosion caused by the crew. She had to undergo skin graft surgery and spent several months recovering in the hospital. The experience left her understandably cautious about similar stunts afterward. Not long after, she decided to change her image and joined TVB, where she started acting in TV dramas. In 2004, she became well-known for her role in the popular series War and Beauty.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
