Ngo Thanh Van in Star Was: Last Jedi
Especially when some Vietnamese websites excitedly reported that the action actress Ngo entered the 'top 50 Hollywood stars of IMDB' (a leap of over... 4,000 places).
But in fact, this is just the result of the online measurement STARmeter on the IMDB movie website about the popularity of actors, mainly based on the release date of their latest movies or information related to them and often changes weekly, monthly.
The rankings are calculated by the amount of traffic to their IMDB profile page.
Ngo Thanh Van is an interesting case, because before that she was only ranked 4,000 but after a week she jumped to 41st place. Throughout the past time, this actress and producer has been actively working in Hollywood in a number of film projects but only in supporting roles.
Images and appearance chart of Ngo Thanh Van on IMDB
Ngo Thanh Van's entry into the top 50 is thanks to the popularity of two movies she appeared in in Hollywood two weeks ago:Star Wars: The Last JediandBirth.
Brightjust premiered on Netflix at the end of December, and the new season ofStar Warsis still sweeping the world charts with record sales.
Looking at the IMDB rankings, it's easy to see that almost all the actors in the filmStar Wars: The Last JediandBirthare all named and ranked above Ngo Thanh Van likeDaisy Ridley(3rd place);Adam Driver(6th place);Kelly Marie Tran(rank 15)...
Besides, the two main actors ofBrightWill Smith and Joel Edgerton are both in the Top 20.
Not onlyStar Wars: The Last JediandBirth,Musicals are dominating the holiday box office.The Greatest ShowmanAlso helping the actors who participated in both supporting and main roles, rise in rank this week are Zendaya (ranked 9); Rebecca Ferguson (ranked 17); Michelle Williams (ranked 35)...
Of course, there are exceptions: without the need for the film to be released at the same time, the number of personal page visits on IMDB is still overwhelming, such as the rising actor Timothee Chalamet (ranked 36) thanks to receiving the New York Film Critics Circle's Best Actor award on January 4 for the workCall Me By Your Namelaunched last November.
Or like Gal Gadot (ranked 19th) who was just awarded the Rising Star title by the Palm Springs International Film Festival for her impressive performance last year withWonder Woman...
Previously, Gadot's index fluctuated, and at the end of last year she was still leading this ranking.
In the leading position is Karen Gillan - the girl born in 1987 currently has a movieJumanji: Welcome to the Jungleworld premiere
In addition, Gillan is strongly supported by the media because at the beginning of this year she actively promoted the blockbuster.Avengers: Infinity Warwith a big shoulder.
Besides the rising stars, many A-list stars dropped in rank due to lack of new movies or media events such as Matt Damon (ranked 164); Brad Pitt (ranked 185); Nicole Kidman (ranked 274)...
Top superstars... fell in rank
Therefore, to maintain their position in this innocuous ranking, actors need to be active: releasing a film every month or always being present on the red carpet at prestigious film events.
However, whatever is said, Ngo Thanh Van becoming a notable name in Hollywood is a promising sign, enough for her to personally demonstrate her abilities and talents in the future.
