Just wondering how they fill them out. My wife keeps saying "You'd be a great Gwailo assassin" in some of the HK triad movies, since I gather the big gwailoes are always the hired guns or something. Just curious if anyone has ever had a bit part in a HK movie and how they got it.

Check out the local agencies such as Star/Jundeh, etc. All do local TVC work and film extras.

tvrlover will become famous soon enoughtvrlover will become famous soon enough
bud if you saw me, you'd know why I scare ppl. in HK I can't walk anywhere w/o people staring up at me hahaaha

but I NEVER want to be in any movies or cinema or anything related, I HATE fame and love my privacy. Think of it this way, I get stared at about 1000x/day now, with fame it would be 1000x more than now, why give up my only chance for relaxation -my privacy - for some movie lol.

lol...i was thinking about how tall i felt over here compared to back home too...kind of funny....

and lol again about being famous from being an extra in a low budget HK movie....

I would aim a bit higher than HK movies if you wanna be famous....HK movies are the joke of asia.....they have to be for the most part some of the worst films ever made...second only to a bad american B-movie.....
