Originally from Taiwan, and based in Toronto, when of course he is not out for 6-8 months on location, James Cho serves as assistant director on mainly Chinese film productions. His specialty is films produced outside of China but for mainly a Chinese-speaking audience. Films like the recently released “THE BRAVEST”, a big-budget firefighter movie being released by Sony Pictures and akin to Ron Howard’s “Backdraft” in its beautifully shot and art directed scenes of fire and destruction and the soon to be released Mandarin-language cop thriller, “THE HUNTING” starring Tony Leung and Olga Kurylenko set in Paris. Not to mention his time with Jackie Chan on “KUNGFU YOGA”.
