Adjust font size:

Chinese actress Huang Yi, who plays Michelle Yeoh's character in the small-screen version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, is making headway into the big screen by tying up with a major film distribution company.

Chinese actress Huang Yi poses at a ceremony in Beijing, where she signed with film distribution company Polybona to accelerate her film acting career, on Sunday, November 25, 2007.

Huang Yi on Sunday signed a contract with Polybona, the Chinese distributor behind such films as Peacock and The Myth.

Huang became the first entertainer to sign with Polybona's subsidiary agent company, which will tailor roles for her in several future projects, Polybona's chief executive Yu Dong was quoted as saying by the Beijing Times.

The actress said she was not going to give up television acting, but would shift her focus to the big screen.

So far, the 28-year-old actress has appeared in a number of films, among them the Brothers, in which she collaborated with veteran actors Andy Lau, Miu Kiu Wai, Felix Wong and Kent Tong.
