On March 23rd, in collaboration with KCL CSSA and Regent Street Cinema, we hosted a special London screening and themed panel for the film Ne Zha 2. Held at Regent Street Cinema—UK's first-ever cinema—the event centered around the theme "From Legend to the Silver Screen—Reimaging Chinese Myth in Ne Zha 2." Speakers explored the film’s animation innovations and its fresh interpretation of Chinese mythology.
Speakers include:
🎤 Finnigan Morris – English voice of Cyan Fang Beast & Fast as Wind in the hit video game Black Myth: Wukong
🎤 Malcolm Cook – Associate Professor in Film at the University of Southampton
🎤 Beverly Andrews – Playwright, Director, and Filmmaker
🎤 Kerry Brown – Director of Lau China Institute, Professor of Chinese Studies at KCL, Former First Secretary of the UK Embassy in Beijing
🎤 Session Chair: Friendred Peng – Computational artist, Head of Computer Animation at UAL
Professor Kerry Brown from King’s College London remarked, “Ne Zha 2 represents how China is telling its own stories in its own way. I hope it achieves great success because it’s truly fantastic to see China producing films like this.” Additionally, the protagonist Ne Zha’s personal growth and transformation provided many surprises for the audience.
This event not only paved a new path for promoting Chinese cinema in the UK but also built a bridge for the global dissemination of Chinese culture.
