Early life
[edit]Maggie Cheung was born in Hong Kong on 20 September 1964 to Shanghainese parents.[5] She attended St. Paul's Primary Catholic School in Happy Valley, where she began at the primary one level. Her family emigrated from Hong Kong to the United Kingdom when she was eight. She spent part of her childhood and adolescence in Bromley, London, and attended St Edmund's School, Canterbury. She returned to Hong Kong at the age of 18 in 1982 for a vacation but ended up staying for modelling assignments and other commitments. She also briefly had a sales job at the Lane Crawford department store.[6]
In 1983, Cheung entered the Miss Hong Kong pageant and won the first runner-up and the Miss Photogenic award as well.[7] She was a semi-finalist in the Miss World pageant the same year.[8] After two years as a TV presenter, it led to a contract with TVB (the television arm of the Shaw Bros. Studio).[6]
Cheung is a polyglot as a result of her upbringing in Hong Kong and England and ten years' stay in Paris. In Center Stage, Cheung performed in Cantonese, Mandarin, and Shanghainese fluently, switching languages with ease. In Clean, she performed in fluent English, French, and Cantonese.[9]
Actor career
[edit]Debut into fame (1984–1987)
[edit]Soon after her debut, Cheung broke into the film industry, starring in comedies. She caught the attention of Jackie Chan, who cast her in Police Story (1985) as May, his long-suffering girlfriend. The film was a huge hit and made Cheung a star overnight.[10][11] Cheung was slated to star in TVB's "The Legend of the General Who Never Was", but due to the death of Barbara Yung who was in the midst of filming Battlefield, and The Feud That Never Was a.k.a. Kings of Ideas (橋王之王), Yung's remaining scenes were assigned to Cheung, and Cheung's role was given to Sheren Tang.[12]
Career breakthrough (1988–1994)
[edit]Despite her success, Cheung found herself typecast in the roles of comics or weak, clumsy women. Realizing this, Cheung wanted to break away by seeking more dramatic roles. She got this opportunity when Wong Kar-wai cast her in As Tears Go By (1988), the first of her many collaborations with Wong.[10][11]
Cheung often cites the film as the piece that truly began her serious acting career, and she won critical praise for it. In 1989-1990, she won Best Actress awards at the Golden Horse Award and Hong Kong Film Award for her work in Full Moon in New York and A Fishy Story respectively.[11] Rolling “Red Dust ”won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress.
In 1991, she became the first Chinese performer to win a Best Actress Award at the prestigious Berlin Film Festival for her work in Center Stage.Maggie Cheung made a historic contribution to China in the performance award.[13] With this film, Maggie Cheung won the Best Actress Award at the Taiwan Golden Horse Film Awards, the Best Actress Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards, and many other awards.
Cheung subsequently proved her versatility with roles in action films. Her performance in the sci-fi martial arts smash hit The Heroic Trio (1992) and its sequel, Executioners (1993), impressed both critics and audiences with her martial arts skills.[10] Also in a departure from her usual roles, Cheung played a beautiful and vicious femme fatale in New Dragon Gate Inn (1992).[11] In the 1993 film Green Snake (1993), she played a snake demon who transformed into a human form. She was both good and evil, yearning for human emotions while feeling confused about them. In Wong Kar-wai's 1994 film Ashes of Time, she almost carried the soul of the character with "static performance":[14] without fierce dramatic conflicts, she conveyed turbulent emotions through eyes, gestures and silence.
International Breakthrough (1996–2004)
[edit]After having acted in more than 68 movies, most of which were action films, in less than a decade, she decided to take her career in another direction. She took a two-year sabbatical and used the time to reflect upon which kinds of roles interested her. She began getting interested in art and music, she travelled and perfected her language studies.[15]
Then she returned to the set, but began to carefully select the co-productions and directors.After taking a break in 1994, Cheung returned to film Olivier Assayas' Irma Vep (1996), which helped her break into the international scene.The film was shortlisted for the Un Certain Regard section of the Cannes Film Festival.[10] That same year, she won further acclaim for her work in the romantic film Comrades: Almost a Love Story, in which she played one of a pair of lovers kept apart for ten years by fate. With this film, she won the Golden Horse Award in Taiwan, the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Best Actress in the Asia-Pacific Film Festival. The film was selected as a classic unit of Venice Film Festival in 2013.
In 1997, she made her first English-language film in Wayne Wang's Chinese Box (1997). Cast as a mysterious young woman named Jean, Cheung held her own alongside the more internationally well-established stars, Jeremy Irons and Gong Li.[11]The film was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival and won the Best Music Award.
After her 1998 marriage to Olivier Assayas, Cheung stayed mainly in France. In the same year, she won the Best Actress Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards for the fourth time for her performance in the film The Soong Sisters (1997).
She returned to Hong Kong to film In the Mood for Love (2000), which won critical acclaim and a fourth Taiwanese Golden Horse Award for Best Leading Actress for Cheung. Won the Best Actress Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards for the fifth time.[6][10] The film was shortlisted in the main competition unit of Cannes Film Festival, and won the French film César Awards, the German film Laura Award and the best foreign language film. British Academy Film Awards, David di Donatello Awards, Best Foreign Language Film Nomination. In 2000, it represented Hong Kong at the Oscar Awards for the best foreign language film.
In 2002, she starred in Zhang Yimou's Hero. The film was nominated for multiple honors, including the Oscar Award and Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film, and was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Berlin International Film Festival. It was named the No. 1 best film in the world by Time magazine in 2004. Hero（2002)has an important influence in the history of Chinese cinema. As the Chinese film with the highest investment and box office that year, it was also the first Chinese film to exceed 100 million yuan at the domestic box office, eventually reaching 250 million yuan.
In 2004, and Wong's 2046 (2004).[10] She won the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival for her role as a mother who tries to kick her drug habit and reconcile with her long-lost son in Clean (2004).[16]She is the first Asian actress to win this honor. In 2005, the film Clean (2004) was nominated for the Best Actress Award in the French César Awards.
Fade out of the film industry (2005–2010)
[edit]After 2005, Cheung gradually reduced her film production and turned to music, art and other fields. During this period, she did not star in new feature films, but appeared in public view in the form of guest appearances or attending international activities. Until around 2013, she basically faded out of the film industry and focused on her personal life and cross-border creation.[17][18]
Cheung has served as a judge of many international film festivals.
- 1999 Venice Film Festival

Retirement (2013–present)
[edit]Since 2013, Maggie Cheung has completely bid farewell to her acting career and turned to focus on her personal interests and cross-border creation. She no longer took the role of film, but set foot in the field of electronic music, trying to compose music and participate in stage performances, and also frequently appeared in cultural activities such as art exhibitions. Although she retired from filming, as an iconic figure in the golden age of China film, her artistic achievements are still widely recognized by the international film industry, and her classic roles and experience as a judge in her career are still industry benchmarks.
As UK's Independent puts it, since her Cannes moment in 2004, Cheung "turned her back on film"[27] and has shifted her focus to philanthropy, making music, and editing.
In July 2011, she was awarded a doctor honoris causa at the University of Edinburgh.[30]
Cheung retired from acting in 2013 and has since kept a low profile.[31]In November, at the kind invitation of director Hou Hsiao-hsien, Maggie Cheung returned to the ceremony where she won the best actress award for the first time as the ambassador of the 50th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award, and has never attended any award ceremony since then.

In 2017, she was invited to become a voting member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (Oscar).[33]
On April 17th, 2024, just as the "100-day countdown to the Paris Olympic Games" and "the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France", Maggie Cheung was invited by the state to act as the ambassador of the "China-France Badminton Charity Festival" and attend the event together with Juliette Binoche.[34]
Retirement life
[edit]In May 2014, Cheung performed at the 2014 Shanghai Strawberry Music Festival.
In June 2019, during a guest appearance on Mango TV reality show Master in the House in which she mentored boyband Next, Cheung spoke frankly about her 2014 performance's poor reception.[35][36]

In June 2022, Cheung performed a DJ set at the grand opening of a new Gucci store at The Landmark in Hong Kong.[39]
On November 22nd, 2022, Maggie Cheung opened a China version of Tik Tok account. She said that she found these video clips while cleaning up old files on her computer. She wrote: "When I watched these videos again, I suddenly realized that time passed too fast." She occasionally shares old materials of her past work or life on the platform.[40]
On September 20, 2023, she cooperated with OLAY brand again and appeared in the camera to shoot a short film.[41]
On September 3, 2024, GQ magazine published a document. "Maggie Cheung Walked Away From Acting 20 Years Ago, but Her Legend Endures". Raymond Ang writer of the article tried to contact Cheung for a interview but declined to be interviewed and Ang by saying: When I began work on this story in the spring, I reached out to Cheung's publicist of several years, trying to see if she might be open to doing an interview. It only took two weeks to get a polite but firm rejection. "Ms. Cheung has decided not to participate in the interview." her publicist wrote in an email. "She did not give a reason, but she's been turning down almost all press opportunities for quite awhile."
She turned down BFI's invitation to participate in their 2024 retrospective as well. "It does add to the mystique," Kimberley Sheehan, the programmer of the retrospective, stated. "It's almost more fitting she's not coming."[42]
