Honorable Mention: Jing Tian
Jing Tian is an Chinese actress who is slowly making her way into the world of Hollywood. Casting her would undoubtably attract a different demographic, albeit an important one, China. Tian is known in China for movies like Warning Signs, Police State and the series The Glory of Tang Dynasty. In America however, she’s been part of some big budget films, like The Great Wall.
However, her role in Pacific Rim Uprising saw her play a savvy intellectually gifted business woman, Liwen Shao. Shao is heroic, strong and feared and plays a pivotal role in the fight against the Precursor Emissary.
