Liu, 37, first gained fame after her television debut in 2003 with "The Story of a Noble Family." She transitioned to film in 2008 and has since built a successful career in both Chinese and Hollywood cinema.

In 2009, Liu was named one of the New Four Dan actresses, a title given to the next generation of China’s most bankable actresses.
