Tony Leung Once Told Maggie Cheung To “Go Home” After Scolding Her For Not Knowing How To Act
He was definitely not in the mood... to deal with a rookie actress.
Hongkong actress — or should we say former actress? — Maggie Cheung may be a goddess of Asian cinema, but even she had a rocky start to her showbiz career.
When she was about 19 years old, Maggie, fresh from placing second in the Miss Hongkong pageant the year before, worked with Tony Leung for the very first time in Police Cadet ‘84 — 16 years before their iconic collaboration in In the Mood for Love.
However, Tony, who already had a few more years of acting experience, was definitely not in the mood to deal with a newbie.
