Liu Yuxin (born March 13, 1988) is a Chinese actress, model, and producer. She is best known for her role as Gororo Mingyu in the 2011 television series Scarlet Heart. She graduated from the Central Academy of Drama.[2]

Career

[edit]

In 2009, Liu played the Princess of Rouran in the Chinese live action film, Mulan. In 2011, she played Gororo Mingyu in the series, Scarlet Heart. In 2016, Liu played Ding Fei in the television show, Far Away Love. She later played Qiang Wei in Switch of Fate. In 2020, Liu played Ji Heng in Eternal Love of Dream, which was the sequel to the 2017 series, Eternal Love.

Liu is also a producer at Stars Collective in the United States, which was founded in 2020. Stars Collective, an emerging talent and film program, was founded by CEO Peter Luo of Starlight Media who financed films such as Crazy Rich Asians and Marshall.[3][4] Liu worked on films including Wuhan Wuhan,[5] Umma, Jamojaya,[6] and The Garfield Movie.[7]

The short-lived American sitcom Selfie (2014), better known as 再造淑女 in Chinese, gained popularity in China through social media in 2021.[8] Liu posted an image of the main actors, Karen Gillan and John Cho on March 17, 2023.[9] She later mentioned she is in talks of a Selfie movie sequel.[10] In January 2024, Liu was asked if there's a chance for Selfie to return, she replied that Warner Brothers will not release the copyright, but she will try her best to communicate with the original cast and crew to create another story.[11]

Personal life

[edit]

Liu bought and owned the rights of the novel, Three Lives Three Worlds, The Pillow Book, and had wanted to play the role of Feng Jiu. However, after the television drama series based on the novel, Eternal Love (2017) became popular following its broadcast, audiences condemned her decision and rallied for Dilraba Dilmurat to play Feng Jiu instead.[12] Following this, netizens had speculations that Liu attempted suicide in August 2018 that was related to her divorce from her husband, who had cheated on her with actress Zhang Meng while Liu was pregnant. Liu denied rumors of suicide and stated that she had trouble sleeping and relied on sleeping pills.[13] She later sold the rights of the book to Tencent Video, who cast her as Ji Heng in the series sequel, Eternal Love of Dream (2020) instead and made her one of the co-producers. Criticism of her performance led to speculations of attempted suicide again.[14][15]

Liu temporarily changed her name from Liu Yuxin to Liu Yuefei. She still uses the name Liu Yuxin[16][17][18] and along with her English name, Yoyo.[19][20]
