Lucy Liu is known for her feisty, strong roles in movies such as "Kill Bill - Vol. 1" and television shows such as her hit show "Elementary" so the news that she plays a feature role in the animated film "The Princess of Kaguya" as a strict Japanese tutor trying to reign in a young princess and turn her into an accomplished woman worthy of being married was an intriguing surprise to her fans, entertainment observers and viewers of the film (Glamour.uk - March 18). What has not been a surprise is how spectacular she is in the role according to some of the reports emerging from the film from viewers.
The talented actress disclosed that while the role was challenging to play because the Princess character is very similar to her personality it was an opporunity she could not pass up because of how special it is to be connected with one of the prestigious Studio Ghibli projects. It is an indication of how special the film studio Studio Ghibli is to her when she is willing to move away from the roles that have made her a Hollywood superstar and take on a 'taskmaster' role in the animated series.
Lucy Liu's acting career is in great form and sparking much speculation about her future roles as her impressive performance in "The Princess of Kaguya" and her scene-winning performances on television as the attractive and spicy Watson, the investigative partner of Sherlock Holmes on the hit television show "Elementary" have entertainment observers wondering what will be the next 'challenge' for this exceptional versatile and sensational actress.
It has been several years since she dominated the movie screens as a sexy, fierce assassin in the "Kill Bill" movies but her sensational scene winning performances in "Elementary" and her voice acting as a Japanese tutor in the animated movie "The Princess of Kaguya" has fans excited about the possibility that this beautiful and impressive actress might return to the big screen as a Hollywood leading lady in a non-animated project in the near future.
