Fan Bingbing, once one of China’s largest film stars, returns to the screen in a thriller after a five-year hiatus due to a huge tax evasion scandal.
Her return in 'Green Night' represents a significant change in her career trajectory, as experts suggest her fame may never reach its previous heights.
Sabrina Qiong Yu, a film scholar, noted that Chinese stars have an unstable grasp on fame, especially after controversies, indicating Fan's uphill battle for acceptance.
Fan’s fall was precipitated by revelations of contract manipulations in the film industry, leading to severe fines and a prolonged public disappearance.
