Zhe Chen

Zhe Chen’s got a pretty wild filmography for someone who’s not exactly a household name. First up, there’s “Blacklights” from 2022. That one? Total mind-bender. You’re dropped right into this neon-soaked underworld full of double-crosses, weird science, and people with secrets stacked higher than their rent. Zhe plays it cool—kind of mysterious, sort of dangerous, but you can’t look away, you know? The whole thing’s got this pulse to it, like if Blade Runner took a shot of espresso and decided to stay up all night. Then you roll into “Better Man” in 2024. More down-to-earth, but not in a boring way. Zhe flips the script—suddenly he’s this regular guy, just trying to make sense of life, love, and the whole mess of being human. There’s heartbreak, there’s hope, and maybe a little redemption if you squint. It’s not just about him, though—the people around him are just as much of a trainwreck, and you kinda root for all of them, even when they screw up (because don’t we all?). And don’t even get started on “The Wandering Earth II” from 2023. Sci-fi on a blockbuster scale, cranked up to eleven. Humanity’s literally dragging the planet across the universe to avoid cosmic disaster—no big deal, right? Zhe’s right in the thick of it: desperate choices, wild action, a heaping dose of existential dread. Just a typical Tuesday in his film world. Watching all these, you get the sense Zhe Chen’s not afraid to dive into the deep end, no matter the genre.
