"Action actress" Ngo Thanh Van has a guest role in the movie "The Creator". She transforms into the beautiful character Kami, saying a few sentences in Vietnamese: "No need to give change, please go quickly. Bye!". Although it is just a guest role, not appearing in many scenes, Ngo Thanh Van still creates a highlight for the character, making the audience remember her and not just passing by in the shadows.
Ngo Thanh Van once shared: "When participating in any Hollywood project, I always change the character's origin to Vietnamese. If it is already a Vietnamese character, I often add typical Vietnamese elements to the Vietnamese dialogue. I think that when I have the opportunity to appear in an international project, I always want to create some kind of impression to let everyone know that I am Vietnamese. The Vietnamese dialogue in "The Creator" was also added by me."
This "action woman" added that she discussed with director Gareth Edwards many details surrounding the setting and Vietnamese language in the film. Director Gareth Edwards gave the actor freedom to express her role within the scope of her character.
Therefore, when working together, she always feels really comfortable. Both discuss with each other to contribute and share more about the context and words of Vietnam.
