After many stars have tried to play young boys and girls across ages, some people think that they should play roles of the same age at any age. But some actors can really rely on acting skills to make up for the actual age difference, and their sense of belief and acting skills will immerse the audience in it without feeling contrary to it.
For example, in "Dear Beloved", the lead actors Li Xian and Yang Zi are classmates of the same level as Nortel, and in reality, Li Xian is only one year older than Yang Zi. But the difference between the characters they play, Han Shangyan and Tong Nian, is exactly ten years old.
In the film, Li Xian performed Han Shangyan's sense of age, and in front of Yang Zi of the same age, he could also carry the calm and boss momentum of the year. They used their acting skills to pull out the age difference, and even let the audience forget the fact that they were peers outside the play.
Also pulling out the age difference of nearly ten years old, there are Also Tan Songyun and Wu Lei in "Whirlwind Girl", but Yang Zili is now 9 years old, and they are closer.
Tan Songyun and Wu Lei play a young boy and girl in the play, the age of the characters is not different, but in fact, Tan Songyun is 9 years older than Wu Lei.
In addition to this kind of couple, there is also the magical age difference in the "mother and child file". Cheng Haofeng, the actor who played Xiao Jingrui in "Langya List", was 38 years old when he starred, and his actual age was two years older than Zhang Yanling, who played his mother' princess Zhang Yanliang.
Chen Baoguo was 44 years old when he played Bai Jingqi in "The Gate of the Big House", and he had to play a group of young people who were in their teens. In the play, Bi Yanjun, who plays his father, is only 1 year older than him, Zhang Fengyi, who plays his master, is the same age as him, and the third uncle Liu Peiqi is only 2 years older than him in reality.
But Chen Baoguo uses superb acting skills to let us ignore the gap between his actual age and the role. Even if there are many 30- and 40-year-old actors in "The Gate of the Big House" who play 18-year-old boys and girls, everyone will not laugh at their handmaidens and teenagers.
Chen Baoguo, who has been playing against "elders of the same age", met his "uncle" who was 10 years younger than him in "The Emperor of Han Wu". Tian Jie, the uncle who plays a lot of scenes in the play, is played by Zhang Shi, who is accustomed to soap operas, and his performance in the main drama is not bad, so that the audience can see his strength.
Early historical dramas do not seem to care about the actual age difference, but pay more attention to the presentation of acting skills. The old drama bone Sichen Gaowa is only five years older than Chen Daoming, but in "Kangxi Dynasty", they play the grandson and grandchildren.
In order to play a good empress dowager, Sichenkova went to the Forbidden City to investigate and read the classics, and tried her best to restore the filial piety closest to history. She and Kangxi, played by Chen Daoming, crossed the age defect, and the perfect interpretation of the two grandchildren has become a classic.
Li Nan in "Young Kangxi" also played a teenager at the age of 36, and did not let the audience feel violated at all.
When you think that the gap between these realities and the characters is surprising enough? On the road of film and television in the past, there is a more outrageous "age difference": Jiang Wen, born in 1963 in "Tears of the Flower Car", played the father of the elderly predecessor Qin Yi, who was born in 1922.
The difference of 41 years old, but also to play the father and daughter, in addition to the late makeup and hair of the ghostly work, the actor's sense of faith and acting skills are also very important.
There are also actors who have been using their acting skills to level the age difference between their counterparts and their counterparts. Jiang Wenli often partners with male protagonists who are about ten years older than herself, playing couples of the same age.
The three big hit dramas she starred in, "Golden Marriage", "Chinese Divorce", and "Happiness Knocking on the Door" are all like this, but the performance is completely unable to see the age difference.
The so-called age is not enough, acting skills to make up, actors rely on acting skills to make up for the age difference, to create a character that the audience believes in, is also a skill. However, those who do not have the confidence to use their acting skills to withstand the test of the audience should not easily try to interpret across age groups.
