Description

Actor Natasha Liu Bordizzo opens up about her trajectory from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword Of Destiny to Star Wars' Ahsoka - being first referred to by media as "Chinese takeaway", the truth of why she never wanted to be an actor, navigating her Mixed-Asian identity in life and work and the hope she's bringing to the table for the future of representation in Hollywood.Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Natasha left her studies in law at 19 to star in the sequel to ‘Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon’ - titled ‘Sword of Destiny’. This catapulted overnight fame for Natasha in China where she found great success in their film market. Natasha has since starred in projects such as ‘Hotel Mumbai’, Netflix’s ‘The Society’ and ‘Wish Dragon’, Amazon’s dark thriller ‘The Voyeurs’ and Netflix #1 movie ‘Day Shift’ alongside Jamie Foxx and Dave Franco. Natasha’s next project is her much anticipated portrayal of Sabine Wren in Star Wars' ‘Ahsoka’.
