Wong Siu, Western name, Kelvin Wong, is a Hong Kong film & television
actor who has appeared in a vast amount of movies and now TV series
since as early as the 1980s. Often playing evil, villainous roles, he
established himself as an evil 'character' actor and therefore was
often typecast in this type of role. Despite some acting work outside
of this character style, he has always been recognized in this way by
HK Film fans, though unfortunately never gaining A-List status due to
his repeated supporting roles as villains in the majority of his films.
However, having starred in films alongside such prolific Hong Kong stars as Jet Li, Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Maggie Cheung, Anita Mui and others, he has indeed collected very respectable credentials over the years. Furthermore, despite the perception that perhaps he has "typecast" at times, Kelvin has been renowned for delivering some of the most powerful performances among HK villains.
Furthermore, consistently acclaimed performances in films such as "Casino Raiders II" and the Award-Winning "Moon Warriors" have earned him deserved praise and although currently busy working in Taiwanese television, hopefully we will soon see the return of this underrated actor into Hong Kong cinema.
