Academy Award-winning director Ang Lee, with many box office hits under his belt (Brokeback Mountain, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Life of Pi), is already a household name in Hollywood. Jason Woo has made a name for himself as an action film director with Hard Target, Face/Off and Mission Impossible: II. China's veteran director Zhang Yimou filmed The Flowers of War in 2011, and is working on a Sino-US co-production Great Wall.
Besides actors and directors, characters based on Chinese people are more prevalent in Western productions today. Chinese migrant workers contributed a great deal to making the boat in the film 2012. Although they were small characters in the film as a whole, they were crucial for the entire flow of the film.
