She gained critical acclaim for her role in Seventeen Years (1999) and received widespread success with films such as A World Without Thieves (2004), The Knot (2006), The Forbidden Kingdom (2008), The Message (2009), and Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame (2010).[1] Li has also starred in Hollywood films Resident Evil: Retribution (2012), Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014), and The Meg (2018).

Early life and career

Li Bingbing was born to a workers' family in a small town of Wuchang, Heilongjiang, China.[7] She has a younger sister Li Xue.[7] At 16, she enrolled in a secondary specialized school, Jixi Normal School (now Heilongjiang University Of Technology).[7] Upon graduation in 1992, she became a probationary music teacher at an elementary school in Harbin for one year.[7] In 1993, she enrolled in the Shanghai Theatre Academy to study acting.[7]

Li gained critical acclaim for her role in Zhang Yuan's Seventeen Years (1999), for which she and Liu Lin shared the Best Actress Award at the 13th Singapore International Film Festival.[8] However, the film went unnoticed in China due to a domestic ban. In 2001, Li gained attention for starring in the popular television series Young Justice Bao. She followed with a number of wuxia television series, such as Taiji Prodigy and Eight Heroes, earning her a label of "action actress."

In 2004, Li achieved breakthrough with her performance in Feng Xiaogang's A World Without Thieves, for which she received a nomination of Best Supporting Actress at the Hundred Flowers Awards.[9] She then starred in Dayyan Eng's romantic comedy film Waiting Alone, for which she received her first Best Actress nomination at the Golden Rooster Awards.[10] In the same year, her sister, Li Xue, became her manager.

In 2009, Li won Best Actress at the 46th Golden Horse Film Awards for her performance in The Message.[11] Li then starred in Tsui Hark's 2010 action-mystery film Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame. She played Shangguan Jing'er, a fictional character based on Shangguan Wan'er, a prestigious politician during the Tang Dynasty.[12] She, along with other partners including Li Xue, established a studio Hesong Entertainment in the same year, co-starring and co-producing the film 1911 with Jackie Chan, which was released in September 2011 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution.[13]

In 2013, Li attended the 4th Annual US-China Film Summit and received the East-West Talent Award.[18][19] Hollywood magazine Variety also named her Asian Star of the Year.[20] The following year, Li featured in Transformers: Age of Extinction, the fourth installment of the film franchise.[21] This helped solidify her success overseas.[22]

In 2015, she was cast in 3D science fiction thriller Nest (also known as Guardians of the Tomb), a Chinese-Australian co-production that was finally released in January 2018.[23] The same year, it was announced that Li would play China's first female superhero in upcoming film Realm, written by Stan Lee.[24]

In 2018, Li starred with Jason Statham in The Meg, an American-Chinese shark film based on Steve Alten's 1997 novel Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror.[25]
