“It's OK to be vulnerable” The Politics of Hollywood and Asian Representation with Jason Wong

Hollywood is in the building! Mel and Iz sit down with British-Chinese actor Jason Wong to discuss his journey from London’s West End to Hollywood, starring in hits like ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ and Guy Ritchie’s ‘The Gentlemen’.  


Jason opens up about challenging Asian male stereotypes on screen, navigating representation in the industry, and how martial arts shaped his career and identity. They dive into themes of masculinity, self-discipline, and vulnerability, reflecting on Jason’s relationship with his father and the foundations of being a man.  


The conversation also covers the power of food in Jason’s life (spoiler: food beats sexiness!), his thoughts on taking authentic roles, and the responsibility of representation for underrepresented communities like East Asians in film.  


Tune in as Jason shares his love for action, his emotional connection to Bruce Lee’s legacy, and how he’s pushing forward for better representation in Hollywood.
