Nicolas Tse on acting and directing

[FWN Adm]

Acclaimed actor Nicholas Tse is increasingly moving to behind the camera to continue Hong Kong's long tradition of action cinema. In Herman Yau's explosive thriller Customs Frontline (2024), he not only plays the role of an officer who goes up against an arms smuggling operation but also makes his debut as an action director, building on 25 years of experience that has included working closely with Jackie Chan and the late Benny Chan.

It is not the first time Tse has diversified, having debuted as a singer in 1996 before moving into acting. His feature credits include New Police Story, Beast Stalker and more recently Raging Fire. For his performance in 2010's The Stool Pigeon, Tse won the Hong Kong Film Award for best actor, making him the first person to have won in the three major acting categories – best actor, best supporting actor and best new performer – at the awards.

Also known as an entrepreneur and TV chef, directing might next be on the cards with the highly-anticipated sequel New Police Story 3.

We congratulate Nicolas for his current achievements and wishing him much success in his career and life in the future.
