"actress" is considered politically incorrect, so by "actor", i mean both male and female. so, who is it (are they)?

again, this reticence! tougher choices this time for me: lead male actor: damian lau chung yan (no surprise) lead female actor: michelle yim (ibid) supporting male actors: wong wai, chun wong, kenneth tsang kong (for their versatility) supporting female actors: suzanna au-yeung pui shan, lisa lui yau wai, helena law lan (ibid)

Ok, I'm a director and I decide to have four leads in my series. The main ones are Adam Cheng and Liza Wang and the other two are David Chiang and Yang Pan Pan.

Nice topic. It's tough though. I mean, each actor is good in their own respective ways, and it really depends on the storyline. That's why as a director (ahem...I am imagining if I were a wuxia director), we can't just choose our favorite actors, we just have to choose who suits specific roles.
Okay....my choice : Andy Lau as YG and Kang Xi in DoMD Carmen Lee as XLN Kenneth Tsang as HYS Chun Wong as ZBT Wong Wan Choi as OYK and Hua Man Lou Miu Kiu Wai as YK Kent Tong as DY Hu Jun as XF Adam Cheng as Chu Liu Xiang, Zhang Wuji, and Chen Jia Luo. Also : Qian Long Tony Leung as WXB Sak Sau as MRF and Wen Tai Lai of The Legend of the Book and Sword Susanna Auyeung as Old HR and Wen Tai Lai's wife in The Legend of the Book and Sword Angie Chiu as ZZR and Ding Peng's wife in Yuan Yue Wan Dao Damian Lau : as Ding Peng, Zhang Dan Feng Barbara Yung as HR (although I have to say she's not pretty enough, but the character just suits her well) Michelle Yim : she's good in all the series/adaptations she was in. Lois Koo : as the guy in A Step into the Past (he got the "playboy" look!)
arggggggg so many!!!

"actress" is considered politically incorrect, so by "actor", i mean both male and female. so, who is it (are they)? I don't see what's wrong with "actress". It's certainly more efficient and sounds nicer than "female actor". Next these political correctness guards will advocate all children of a king be called "prince" irregardless of gender. P.S. Sorry for the off-topic comment. Need to rant whenever I see PC get overboard. It spoiled the beautiful English language with their boring PC replacement words/terms.

reinafu, since you are director, I am sure you will have the title theme sung by Adam Cheng. I recently watched Adam Cheng sing in a TVB entertainment series called "Sunday Songbird". This is not a wuxia programme, the main point is to have some people come up and sing some old songs. Adam Cheng starts and closes the show with a song. The first few episodes of the program saw Adam Cheng stagger a bit, vocally. A month or so down the line, his singing is back to his glory days. This link is all in Chinese. I could not find one in English, sorry. zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday%E9%9D%9A%E8%81%B2%E7%8E%8B
