Show Notes

Since playing Lau in "The Dark Knight," Chin Han has been on a Hollywood run, acting in blockbuster action movies like "Ghost in a Shell," "Skyscraper," and "Captain American: Winter Soldier," as well as work on a less grand scale for Steven Soderbergh, Gus Van Sant, and the celebrated Netflix series "Marco Polo." Now he stars in the eagerly anticipated new "Mortal Kombat" movie as the shape-shifting villain Shang Tsung. I asked him how he dealt with the history, fan passion and anticipation for the character in his preparation and how it affected him during production. He talks about his interesting process of de-linking the text and deconstructing himself as a way of building the performance. And we discuss iconic lines and how to approach their delivery, plus much more!
