Charismatic lead actor
In the show “In the Desert of Death,” the actors play brilliantly, but the lead role belongs to Daniel Wu, who reincarnated as Sunny. The actor starred mainly in oriental action games, although he was born and grew up in California, with a married couple who had once immigrated from Shanghai. Initially, he was involved in production as an executive producer, who was supposed to be responsible for the production of battle scenes. As he immersed himself in the work, Daniel more and more liked the key character, but he believed that a younger performer should be involved in his role. The creators spent a long casting, but were unable to find a suitable actor who is fluent in martial arts. In the end, they turned to Wu and he agreed. The performer has been practicing kung fu since he was 11 years old, but despite this, for six months he was preparing for his role, improving his acting skills and physical fitness.
