Haiqing once expressed the sadness of middle-aged actresses: "The various limitations of the market and themes often keep us away from some excellent works."
It is true that the midlife crisis has never let actresses go. A male actor can still play couples with young actors at the age of 40, while an actress will play mother-in-law and mother when she is forty.
However, with the update and iteration of entertainment industry policies in recent years and the audience’s call for good actors, many actresses have also ushered in spring.
has acting skills and no scandals. These actresses can fly to the branches as long as they encounter a good script.
Yu Girl took a look at 10 middle-aged actresses who became popular, without hype or plastic surgery, and see how many traffic stars they slapped in the face.
No. 1: Wu Yue
In 2017, the 45-year-old Wu Yue became a circle with the role of Ling Ling in "I am the First Half of Life".
The character is called the most special and strongest third party. She has a low education, average appearance, divorced and has children, but she successfully defeated her beautiful original wife and tied the knot with an executive who earned millions a year.
Wu Yue's acting skills naturally have no trace, showing Ling Ling's pathetic, pitiful and hateful qualities.
Because of this role, Wu Yue was scolded so badly, which made her famous.
Before this, Wu Yue had been acting for 22 years. Since the 1995 " Beijing Late Autumn Story ", she has been solidly consolidating her acting skills.
Wu Yue was beautiful when she was young, and she was often a sweet girl in love dramas.
is like the movie "Chrysanthemum Tea", her every frown and smile is enough to capture people's hearts.
As he grows older, Wu Yue failed to maintain the position of the heroine, but instead kept being a green leaf in the play.
Several works have been published every year, but I can't remember the name of Wu Yue.
In those years, the only topic around Wu Yue was the label of "Chen Jianbin's ex-girlfriend".
No one expected that she would finally shine when she was middle-aged.
After "My First Half of Life", Wu Yue has more and more film appointments. Although she is still a supporting role, every performance is amazing.
In " You, You, ", she plays a poor lower-class mother with a selfish and cold side and a helpless state of mind.
In " Anti-Black Storm ", she plays a public security director who is both righteous and evil. The cruelty, pain and despair make the audience love and hate this character.
in "Come on! In Mom, she became the mother of two children. She had the decisiveness of a lawyer and the sadness of being a mother. She was not the heroine, but she raised the acting level of the whole drama to a higher level.
Wu Yue became popular, many people used "people are as light as chrysanthemums" to describe her, but she didn't like this tag at all: "I'm not as light as chrysanthemums at all, nor is it a deep water flowing quietly. Don't label me anymore."
Wu Yue doesn't need to use tags and character designs to maintain traffic, or she has always kept a distance from the rules of the entertainment industry. She is sober and knows that everything is only for drama and does not please anyone.
second place: Zeng Li
In 2020, the urban romance drama " Next Stop is Happiness " was accompanied by controversy in the traffic, and the male and female protagonists were criticized from their character design to their acting skills.
The only thing that is not controversial is that Zeng Li plays the most beautiful stepmother Wu Meiyin. The character
is really pleasing. Not only is it outstandingly beautiful, but the key is that it is dual business online, smart and capable, perfectly breaking everyone's traditional perception of stepmothers, and can be called the real heroine in the whole drama.
Zeng Li, who is over 40 years old, is not surprising at all to become popular in middle age, because she was born with all the qualities of a good actor.
She has studied body, vocal music and dance since she was a child. After graduating from elementary school, she was admitted to Chinese Academy of Opera , majoring in Qingyi.
years of accumulation have made Zeng Li become the best in the class when he was admitted to Central Academy of Drama, and even surpassed the same classmate, including Ziyi , Yuan Quan and Liu Ye .
Liu Ye once said: "Zeng Li's conditions are recognized by our class as the best, big, big Qingyi."
But Zeng Li's personality is very Buddhist, he does not compete or compete, nor does he cater to the rules in the circle for fame and fortune.
In the first few years of her debut, many beautiful characters hit her.
For example, she played Mei Sanniang in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", which is so beautiful.
Another example is Li Shiniang in "The Sorrow of Qinhuai", she is so gorgeous that no one can defeat her.
When Zeng Li's celebrity classmates became famous, Zeng Li slowly played an irrelevant supporting role. He drank tea and watched flowers when he was not acting, and lived a life as good as a god.
When people reach middle age, many actresses are busy fighting aging and filling their faces with injections in order to maintain their appearance, but Zeng Li still looks like that, with her tight skin and beautiful bones. She does not rely on her beauty to commit crimes and accepts all the role settings.
Zeng Li played the role of mother in " Accompanying Mom " and the drama version of " July and Ansheng ".
In " Star Han Qiang ", she also plays Zhao Lusi's mother. She is not married or childbirth, but she plays the role of a mother without any sense of incongruity.
For Zeng Li, it doesn’t matter whether he is popular or not. An actor is just a job, not a means of pursuing fame and fortune.
Her Buddhist attitude towards life is out of place in the current impetuous social environment, but it is this soberness that makes Zeng Li a pure actor.
Third place: Liu Lin
In 2018, Liu Lin, who has debuted for 25 years, never thought that she would become famous in a costume drama.
That year, " Knows " pushed Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng to the peak of traffic, and Liu Lin also got a share of the pie.
In the play, the eldest lady played by Liu Lin gathers all the stupid, cute and cute side. A woman from a noble family is excluded by her mother in her husband's family, thus staged a bloody house fight scene.
Liu Lin's acting skills are perfect and very consistent with the role. She was shortlisted for the Best Supporting Actress Award in Shanghai Magnolia, but unfortunately she lost to Tong Yao who played "The Great River".
In 2020, Liu Lin ushered in her second career peak.
She rarely participates in variety shows and contributes many famous scenes in " Sound Immortal Season 3 ". Her dubbing is full of emotion and touches people's hearts.
This year, she defeated well-known actors such as Jia Nailiang and Zhang Hanyun and won the annual championship.
Through variety shows, everyone once again witnessed Liu Lin’s foundation as an actor.
It was still this year. Liu Lin played Zhou Chunhong in the hit drama "The Secret Corner", a mother with a strong desire to control, which was interpreted to the extreme by her.
Actors who encounter a hit drama will be a king.
Liu Lin’s success was not accidental, but the fruit condensed by years of sweat.
She has loved acting since she was a child and can keep eating and sleeping for performance.
25 When she was 025, she and Li Bingbing partnered in " Going Home for the New Year ". She won the Singapore International Film Festival Best Asian Actress Award.
Later, she was still lukewarm, but she was willing to be a green leaf and created her own world bit by bit.
The movie " Parental Love ", played by Liu Lin, still has a textbook interpretation.
th place: Sui Junbo
2022, Sui Junbo finally made his way.
A popular " World " allows us to see Sui Junbo's potential.
3 years old, she has a ponytail and a thick cotton jacket, she is gentle and generous, simple and unpretentious.
The role of Hao Dongmei may not be as outstanding as the starring actors, but she has a strong audience favor.
was born in a high-ranking family. She has been in a down-and-out and embarrassed family, but she has never been humble or arrogant. Even with a pair of shrewd and strong parents, she has never compromised or selfish.
Sui Junbo interprets Hao Dongmei's life, with a time span of 50 years, and she can use her acting skills to convince the audience at every stage.
In the year before starring in "The World", Sui Junbo was also in controversy because he played Pei Nanwei in "The Snow Swordsman". She looks a bit male and plays such a gentle character with a strong sense of incongruity.
20 years after debuting, Sui Junbo has acted in many TV series, all of which are supporting roles, but he is always lukewarm.
is not red enough and has no background. Sui Junbo has been "changed" more than once.
Faced with these unfair operations, she was discouraged and wanted to withdraw from the circle.
This is the reality in the entertainment industry. If you are not popular enough, you will not have the right to fight for opportunities.
In recent years, many of the roles Sui Junbo played were not what she liked, but in order to survive, she had to continue playing them.
The success of "The World" is a turning point in Sui Junbo's fate. She still rarely markets and does not take advantage of her popularity to participate in variety shows, but at least she has more say in the future actor journey.
No. 5: Huang Xiaolei
Not only Sui Junbo, but also Huang Xiaolei became famous through "The World".
Huang Xiaolei plays Qiao Chunyan, a character in the play with a little villain. She has the simplicity and enthusiasm of that era, and also has a utilitarian side.
When she was young, she was very cute, but when she was middle-aged, she lived more and more self-centered.
Qiao Chunyan's personality traits are almost tailor-made for Huang Xiaolei, and her "spicy" looks similar to Chongqing girls.
This is the first time Huang Xiaolei plays a role with such a large time span, from her childhood to her old age.
0-year-old Huang Xiaolei has been waiting for this opportunity for nearly 20 years.
In the past 20 years, she has also played many roles. She has her shadow in " The Legend of the Condor Heroes ", "Crossing the Kanto", and "Lost in the Road", but she has always lacked a classic role.
Qiao Chunyan's appearance filled the gap in Huang Xiaolei's acting career and also allowed the audience to see the possibilities in her.
With the popularity of "The World", Huang Xiaolei appeared in "Sisters in the Waves 3". Although she was just a soy sauce, her domineering and loyalty have gained a lot of audience favors.
th place: Yan Ni
Yan Ni's acting career is divided into two parts, one is the comedy route brought by "Wulin Waizai", and the other is the inspirational heroine route after losing weight.
The year when she starred in "Wulin Waizhi", Yan Ni was 33 years old. Before that, she had been a supporting role for several years.
Tong Xiangyu The character inspired Yan Ni's comedy talent to the greatest extent, as well as her boldness and unrestrainedness as a woman in the Northwest.
At that time, Yan Ni was fixed in a role similar to Tong Xiangyu. She wanted to play ugly, funny, and hard.
So, she became the Niu Hua in " North Wind That Blows " and the proprietress in "The Legend of Three Guns".
Yan Ni on the screen has nothing to do with beauty and high-end sense. Yan Ni on the screen has poor clothing and poor figure, and is also an insulator of beauty.
In 2014, Yan Ni and Hu Ge staged a sister-brother relationship in the TV series " Life Revelation ", because Yan Ni is too "old" and is more like a mother and son with Hu Ge.
Although the ratings are good, Yan Ni was ridiculed by the whole network.
Since then, Yan Ni has changed quietly. She exercises and loses weight, changes her makeup and clothing matching, and her whole body exudes vitality and vitality from the inside out, and she is more than ten years younger.The change in appearance of
has ushered in more career opportunities.
In 2019, Yan Ni won the Magnolia Best Actress Trophy for the TV series " Boy Pi ".
Yan Ni, who has been in her fifties, has ushered in the best moment in her life, confident and self-consistent, and shining brightly.
th place: Liu Mintao
Liu Mintao's popularity was purely accidental.
That was 2020. At a grand ceremony on a satellite TV station, Liu Mintao sang "Red High Heels" together with Han Xue and Wan Qian .
Han Xue and Wan Qian maintain a reserved and elegant singing on the stage, while Liu Mintao seems to be a "player".
rolled his eyes, shook his shoulders, twisted his body, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were filled with three points of sarcasm, three points of arrogance, and three points of coldness.
This immersive performance set off a climax on the Internet, and Liu Mintao became popular almost overnight.
This year, Liu Mintao was 44 years old and has been in the industry for almost 20 years.
Of course, it won’t be popular for too long with just one performance. Fortunately, Liu Mintao has the support of his works.
She is the dignified and calm Concubine Jing in " Langya Bang ", the eldest sister in " Pretender ", and the ill-fated Teacher Ge in "Parents Love".
As the popularity increases, Liu Mintao's experiences along the way have also been discovered.
It turned out that she married a wealthy businessman during the rising period of her career, taking care of her husband and children. For seven years, she was kept in captivity.
Liu Mintao thought this was the right choice, but later he discovered that the wealthy businessman had his own world and was not at home for many years, leaving her alone in the empty room.
Looking at the cold home, Liu Mintao divorced in disheartenness and picked up his career again.
This experience instantly turned Liu Mintao into an inspirational heroine, and there were more and more opportunities.
In the past two years, Liu Mintao has produced many works, from "The Corridor Pavilion" to "Goodbye! Boy" and then to "Hidden Lady's Laws ", we see her plasticity as an actor.
th place: Yongmei
In 2019, Yongmei's name dominated the hot searches.
This year, she won two grand prizes for the movie " Land and Long " - the Golden Rooster Award Best Actress and the Berlin Film Festival Silver Bear Award .
In "The Earth and the Sky Long", Yongmei's performance was very amazing.
The html she played Wang Liyun , originally had a stable job, a warm family of three.
However, his son drowned, which made the family storm. What's even worse was that Wang Liyun lost his fertility.
In order to heal the pain, she and her husband chose to go far away.
Yongmei's performance is very restrained, but the more restrained it is, the more it shows the sadness of the characters.
In her silent performance, the audience burst into tears again and again.
Yongmei can interpret the character so delicately and perfectly, which is a continuous accumulation of more than 20 years.
It was still this year. Yongmei played a mother Liu Jing in the TV series " Little Joy ", which is the White Moonlight for everyone.
calm and restrained, gentle and wise, and tolerate everything like the sea. The role of
made Yongmei nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Award in Shanghai Magnolia.
Compared with the actors of the same period, Yongmei became famous later, and this was her own choice.
During the booming period of the mainland entertainment industry, she did not take on any show to make money, nor did she cater to the traffic packaging hype.
She has always adhered to the bottom line of being an actor, not going against herself, and not greedy for fame and fortune.
has won the grand prize, Yongmei still maintains her usual calmness and low-keyness.
In the days when you are not filming, you can't see her on the screen. She returns to the ordinary and feels the fireworks in life like ordinary people.
Actors like Yongmei are precious existences in the entertainment industry. No matter how flashy the circle is, you can always see the cleanest and purest things in her, and it is purest the greatest aura in the actor.
ninth place: Ni Hongjie
Ni Hongjie has been walking all the way, and the starry road has been ups and downs.
She initially became famous for the "Tingmei Underwear Advertising" and became the goddess in the hearts of countless people.
Later, she met "Wulin Waijie". Her role as Zhu Wushuang is also the youthful memory of a generation.
But in many years, the tags surrounding Ni Hongjie were "out of time" and "declined".
It is true that among the several starring actors in "Wulin Waizai", Ni Hongjie's development is relatively backward.
She failed to seize the golden period of development, which led to her being lingering on the brink of supporting roles and gradually becoming a passerby.
But Ni Hongjie doesn't believe in fate. After years of dormant, she finally made her proud.
In 2019, Ni Hongjie participated in the movie " Spring ". She played her mother Alan, an irresponsible mother who was obsessed with the card table and regardless of her daughter's food and clothing.
But when she found out that her daughter was in danger, her maternal love emerged again.
is such a complex character, interpreted to the extreme by Ni Hongjie.
Immediately afterwards, she played her mother Zhong Jie in " Skyscraper ", also a tragic character, humiliated by her husband and tortured by fate.
When all actresses avoid their mother roles, Ni Hongjie has become a circle with her mother roles.
But Ni Hongjie was not proud. She participated in " Actor Please Take Place " with a sense of awe and accepted all comments and guidance.
She is not the best acting skills in the show, but she is the most sincere.
This sincerity truly makes people understand her growth and experience over the years.
In 2021, Ni Hongjie ushered in a boom in her career, with a total of 11 dramas, with the protagonists and supporting roles, and she completed them one by one.
Ni Hongjie, now 44 years old, is still so beautiful, not as a girl, but as a woman who has experienced the storm, tenacious and powerful.
10th place: Qin Hailu
In 2000, Qin Hailu won the four best actresses with the movie " Durian Piaopiao ".
However, compared to her acting skills, everyone pays more attention to her appearance, single eyelids, small eyes, three-dimensional facial features, and imperfect face shape. Everyone calls her the ugliest actress queen.
In that era when appearance is justice, Qin Hailu had acting skills, and it would be difficult for her to become famous with such a face.
But Qin Hailu has never been defeated. With her tenacity in her bones, she continues to expand her territory on the road to actors.
Later in " Steel Piano ", "Red Sorghum", " White Deer Plain ", Qin Hailu proved her strength again and again, but she was still a few steps away from Hong.
In 2021, Qin Hailu ushered in a turning point in her life.
In the past, Qin Hailu always had a big role on the screen, but in the variety show "Wife's Romantic Travel", she turned into a "unable independent" little woman, and her husband would accompany her in everything she did.
This contrast has made Qin Hailu gain a lot of audience favors.
At the same time, she plays the decisive Li Ping in " Xiaomin's family ". She is obviously a supporting actress, but the limelight overwhelms the protagonist.
Along the way, Qin Hailu has no scandals, only works, she dares to speak and do, keeps awe, and does not forget her original aspirations, and will surely usher in the best second half of her life.
Miss Yu said
These ten middle-aged actresses are the fresh stream in the entertainment industry.
They may not be top stars, and their commercial value is not as good as those traffic stars, but because of them, the audience feels that there is still hope in the Chinese film and television industry.
In combination, they have several common points:
. Don’t be blinded by traffic.
Whether popular or not, they always stick to themselves, polish their acting skills, and are willing to sacrifice for their works.
. Be able to endure loneliness.
Before becoming popular, these actors had accumulated over ten or twenty years of accumulation. Their talents and virtues were worthy of their position, so there would be no time for a house to collapse.
. Not cater to the world.
The secular aesthetics and prejudice have slandered them, but they have never made themselves unrecognizable because of this, but slapped all controversies in the face with their strength.
In the past two years, there have been many celebrities with collapsed personality in the entertainment industry. This is the result of traffic. If you are eager for quick success and instant benefits, you will inevitably be backfired.
On the other hand, these middle-aged actresses are down-to-earth and do not take shortcuts, and their blessings are still ahead. (end)
[Yu Girl] records the sudden changes in the entertainment industry. Thank you for your likes and attention!
