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 number of visits to their IMDB profile page.

Ngo Thanh Van is an interesting case, because before she was only ranked 4,000 but after a week she jumped to position 41. 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.

Besides, the two main actors ofBrightWill Smith and Joel Edgerton are both in the Top 20.

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 fell in rank due to lack of new movies or media events such as Matt Damon (rank 164); Brad Pitt (rank 185); Nicole Kidman (rank 274)...

Top superstars... dropped 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.
