"You have a...sister"

You may have noticed a lolipop sucking, knife wielding Asian lass in the Give 'Em Hell Malone trailer posted yesterday. I mentioned that the underworld boss had lieutenants, one of them being Ving Rhames' character. Well, the other is named "Mauler" and is played by Chris Yen. "Who?" you might say. OK, it's obvious that she's probably new to the scene. So, what if I told you that her brother's name is Donnie?

Yeah, that Donnie Yen. It seems she's been slowly making her way into the entertainment world, following the the footsteps and getting a bit of an assist from big brother. She looks rather capable and according to an interview she did with Kung Fu Cinema.com about her role as Mauler, she does her own choreography as well. She co-starred in a Hong Kong action-comedy titled PROTEGE DE LA ROSE NOIR and will soon appear in the television series, "Rockville, CA."

I will definitely be looking out for her in future films. Here's hoping the Yen blood will produce another great action star. More information, photos, links to articles, and clips can be found at her official website.
