Hong Kong actor, singer, songwriter, entrepreneur and TV chef (Chinese food travelogue Chef Nic) Nicholas Tse has dazzled global audiences with his acting and action chops for the past two decades, delivering powerhouse performances in a striking array of roles. After debuting as a singer in 1996, he moved into acting and anchored such hits as New Police Story (2004), Bodyguards and Assassins (2009), The Viral Factor (2012), The Bullet Vanishes (NYAFF 2013), As the Light Goes Out (2014), Beast Stalker (NYAFF 2018) and Raging Fire (NYAFF 2021). For his performance in The Stool Pigeon (2010), Tse won the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actor, making him the first winner of three major acting categories at the awards, after earlier taking Best Supporting Actor and Best New Performer. In Herman Yau’s explosive new thriller, Customs Frontline, the star ignites the screen as a customs officer caught in a deadly web of arms smuggling. With pulse-pounding action and shocking twists, it is a white-knuckle ride that will take audiences to the very edge of the law--and their seats! Tse will present the North American premiere of the film, which also marks his debut as action director.
