INTO THE SPOTLIGHT

IT WAS JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO when we first got introduced to Jason Wong. At the time, the British Asian actor was hard at work doing the press rounds for BBC’s Silent Witness. Two years on, Jason has made incredible strides in film appearing in a number of productions such as The Gentleman. But 2023 may be the breakout year for the actor as he stars in highly-anticipated flicks, Dungeons & Dragons and The Covenant.

No doubt, Jason’s success also provides a sense of nationalistic pride for both Singapore and Malaysia. After all, he has ties to both countries, being of Singaporean and Malaysian heritage. And he has certainly come a long way in his acting career too. A familiar face on British television, he first made waves as Kai in ITV crime drama series, Strangers.

His list of credentials that followed was equally impressive. He scored a regular series role as Adam Yuen in Silent Witness and also starred in the Channel 4 miniseries Chimerica. On film, his big screen credits include Netflix’s The 355 starring Jessica Chastain and Penélope Cruz and a role in the sci-fi blockbuster Solo: A Star Wars Story. He also played the scene-stealing role of Phuc in Guy Ritchie’s The Gentleman.
