Most recently, Huang can be seen as Kung Lao in the Warner Bros. and HBO Max reboot of “Mortal Kombat,” which was directed by Simon McQuoid. “The reboot was amazing,” he said. “To be honest, that was my first big project in my acting career because before that, I used to do stunts.” “I tried early on to take the transition into acting but that was ...
On being a part of Jackie Chan’s stunt team, Huang said, “It is weird in a way standing beside the legend, it has always been my dream to work with him ever since I was a child. Finally, in 2010, my dream came true when I reached out to him at a red carpet premiere in Berlin.” “Although I didn’t meet him directly, I handed my tape over to Jaden Smi...
In 2019, Huang made his filmmaking debut with the award-winning German original action short, “No Way Out,” which he directed and starred in. “That was a flashback for me, and I did that in 2017,” he said. “At the time I didn’t have any acting material to show so I decided to create my own content, in order to create my own chances. I wrote, direct...
On his future plans, Huang said, “I want to do a full-length feature film in the future. I will continue to give my best, I think this is only the beginning. There is more to come.”
For young and aspiring stunt performers, he said, “When I had nothing to show, I edited and put together my own material and I would shoot it myself. Having a background in different sports is essential, especially as a base for the physical skills in the beginning. Focus on one skill and get really good at that.” Huang continued, “It is important ...
He spoke about being an actor in the digital age. “There are more opportunities out there, especially right now. I can see a shift with Asian actors and actresses getting more and more chances such as Michelle Yeoh who is rocking it with ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once.’ Michelle is doing well and representing the Asian community,” he said. “Thi...
His next project is “Snafu” opposite Jackie Chan. “I am more than excited about it, I just don’t know when ‘Snafu’ is going to come out. It was fun doing it and working with Jackie Chan again. We all go along awesome, it was a great time,” he said. Huang’s other acting and stunt credits include “Police Story: Lockdown,” “The Foreigner” and “Kingsma...
Outside of the acting realm, Huang has practiced the martial art Wushu (under Shanghai Wushu Team member Wang Peng Cheng) and he went on to win the gold medal at the German Wushu Nationals in 2009.
Huang is also a singer-songwriter, who released “Flawless Victory” a few years ago. “The lyrics for ‘Flawless Victory’ came from my heart and it’s very honest. It resembles the time and space that I am in when I was writing that. For me, life is about living in the moment and this song expresses that, as well as don’t let anyone tell you that you c...
Regarding his definition of the word success, Huang said, “For some people, it might mean happiness, that’s not necessarily the fact. Success is an achievement once you make a lot of sacrifices. In order to reach a higher goal, you need to make sacrifices and that is putting in the work and putting in the hours. Eventually, if you checkmark all of ...
