Liu has had a strong presence on the IMDbPro STARmeter chart,
reaching the top 10 three times in the past year, propelled by his

The Ten Rings. Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings trended as
a fan favorite title on the IMDbPro MOVIEmeter chart, landing a
spot on the IMDb Top 10 Movies of 2021 list. Liu recently won a
People's Choice Award in the category of ‘Action Movie Star’ and is
currently shooting Barbie for Warner Bros. His memoir titled We
Were Dreamers: An Immigrant Superhero Origin Story will be
published by William Morrow this May. Video of Liu accepting his

“I am so incredibly grateful to receive the IMDb STARmeter Award
– this is truly an honor,” said Simu Liu, celebrating his STARmeter
Award in the UK, where he is currently filming Barbie. “It feels
like just yesterday that I got my first IMDb credit but almost 10
years later I’ve been fortunate enough to help bring some
incredible movies and TV shows to life. I really couldn’t be
happier to receive this award – thank you to IMDb and to all the
fans for checking out my IMDb and IMDbPro pages.”
“Simu Liu has captivated audiences around the world with his
powerful and compelling performances in a broad range of roles and
films, and fans and professionals have turned to IMDb and IMDbPro
to learn more about him,” said Nikki Santoro, IMDb chief operating
officer. “As we celebrate Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
on IMDb, we are thrilled to highlight Simu and his career with an
IMDb STARmeter Award, and we can’t wait to see the characters and
projects he’ll take on next.”
Throughout the month of May, IMDb is celebrating Asian and
Pacific Islander actors, directors, producers, and writers with
exclusive videos and curated galleries. Features including New
Comedies From Asian and Pacific Islander Stars, and a gallery
highlighting Asian Hollywood Stars to Watch can be viewed at
https://www.imdb.com/imdbpicks/apahm/. Additionally, entertainment
fans in the U.S. can download the new IMDb What to Watch app for
Fire TV, which features a curated list of recommended titles within
the Watch Challenge game honoring Asian American and Pacific
Islander history and culture with documentaries, dramas, and
more.
Liu shared some of the actors and filmmakers who have inspired
his career, saying, “We’re living in a very exciting time for Asian
and Pacific Islander filmmakers. Even five years ago the industry
landscape was very different; the opportunities did not exist to
cultivate the richness of storytelling that we’re seeing today in
Lee Isaac Chung, Lulu Wang, Justin Chon, Kogonada, Destin Daniel
Cretton, Jon Chu, James Wan, Justin Lin, and so many others,” said
Liu. He also commented, “Films such as The Farewell, Minari, and
After Yang shine an honest light on the Asian American experience,
one that is often overlooked in Hollywood. I’ve been personally
inspired by these films to be a champion of our stories and to help
amplify the important voices in our community.” IMDb users can add
the TV series and films from Liu‘s IMDb filmography, as well as
other titles, to their IMDb Watchlist at
