The new drama "Eternal Night Star" starring Yu Shuxin and Ding Yuxi was aired and became very popular. The story of

is adapted from the online novel "Black Lotus Strategy Manual". It tells the story of a ghostly girl who travels through time and upgrades to fight monsters in the virtual world. It sounds very touching.

Sure enough, the work became very popular after it was aired. Everyone's focus was basically on "How did Yu Shuxin become beautiful?", but few people paid attention to the fact that the fourth female lead, Gillian Chung, played the male protagonist's mother.

Although there is a 14-year age difference between the two, as a generation of "beauty gods", Gillian has always been a "childhood memory" in the hearts of the audience, and her beauty was at the peak of her popularity.

is now reduced to a supporting role and has to play the role of mother to young students?

In fact, this topic is nothing new. As early as a few years ago, many actresses who were once popular but unfortunately aged have had similar emotions: Ruby Lin and Big S said that they could not accept being the mother of the leading actress. .

But in the face of reality, in addition to Gillian, actresses such as Jin Sha, who takes the girl route, Chen Qiaoen, the generation's "Taiwan puppet drama goddess", Zeng Li, who is recognized as "the big Qing Yi who only met in 200 years", are all so charming. I'm going to play the role of mother...

In fact, this choice is not all helpless, because some people have successfully transformed, brought the character out of the circle, and achieved a second rise to fame.

1. Gillian Chung in "The Star of Everlasting Night": 43 years old

In "The Star of Everlasting Night", Gillian plays a stunning beauty who did not meet her lover when she was young and was abandoned.

Although the character design is complex and interesting, the public's focus is still on her beautiful appearance.

Indeed, even though she is 43 years old, as soon as Gillian appeared in a light green gauze dress and unadorned makeup, her persona of "stunning beauty" was established.

Compared with the various "common girls" and "beautiful" jokes that constantly appear in ancient puppet dramas today, although Gillian has gradually matured with the passage of time, her beauty is still not to be underestimated.

Throughout his more than 20 years in the film and television industry, he has been involved in various controversies. Nowadays, he is often found to have gained weight and does not pay attention to body management, but he has never aged.

And if we go back to 2002, she starred in the first costume drama "The Monkey King, the Monkey King", in which she played Fairy Ziwei who was so smart and jumping around. Looking back now, she is still unprecedented, and her appearance is enough to kill everyone in an instant. Little flowers born in the 90s and 00s.

After that, Gillian also contributed her peak appearance in costume dramas such as "Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain", "Female Patrol Agent of the Tang Dynasty", "The Legend of Nuwa" and so on, and each one was breathtakingly beautiful.

2. "Splendid Peace" Jin Sha: 41 years old

In the costume drama "Splendid Peace" which just concluded, a "controversial" mother actor Jin Sha also appeared.

At that time, this matter caused heated discussion and rushed to the hot search, and she herself responded with high emotional intelligence: "I hope I can participate in the 'Mother of the White Moon' more in the future."

In the drama, Jin Sha plays a character who is younger than herself. Netizens compared photos of the 17-year-old female director Min, the mother of the two, and found that their looks were indeed about the same.

As we all know, before this, she has always given people a "girly" feeling. She was even sharply commented by Hao Lei in "I Am an Actor" last time: "You always play a girl, so what does the girl next to you play?"

Maybe She really listened to the other party's advice, and Jin Sha successfully challenged the deceased lady "Gu Minglan" in "Splendid Tranquility", which was extremely successful.

In fact, she is really good at playing this kind of "Bai Yueguang" role.

In addition to laughing at Lan Feilin in "The Eighteen-Year-Old Sky", Jin Sha also starred in the costume drama "Myth" as Lu Su with an excellent character.

3. "Drunken Linglong", "Brilliant Stars", " and Feng Xing" Zeng Li: 48 years old

was stamped by the outside world as "the big Qingyi who met once in 200 years in Chinese dramas". When he was young, he was a big man with extraordinary temperament. Beauty, although some people say that her beauty cannot be detected, but judging from the photos with her classmates Zhang Ziyi, Yuan Quan, Hu Jing and other beauties, she is indeed very eye-catching.

But because she doesn’t have much desire to become popular, she has always seemed tepid since her debut, but she still left many classic screen images.

Especially when she appeared in costume dramas, many viewers may still remember her role as Mei Sanniang in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", which was simply called "the most beautiful ghost".

Since then, Zeng Li has released many works every year, but there has never been much splash.

It wasn’t until 2017 that she challenged herself to play the role of actor William Chan’s mother in the costume drama “Drunken Linglong”.

There is only a 9-year age difference between the two of them, so it does seem a bit inconsistent when they are in the same frame.

But Zeng Li did not have the concerns of other actresses. Instead, she went further and further on the road of "acting as a mother". After that, she played the mother for many young actors:

such as "July and Ansheng" and Shen Yue partnered with Zhao Lusi in "Brilliant Star", and became Xiao Zhan's mother in "Jade Bones"...

Until this year, Zeng Li played the adoptive mother and master to Zhao Liying in the hit "Walking with the Phoenix". At that time It was also on the hot search, but she never responded to it. She just used her delicate acting skills to interpret different types of middle-aged images.

4. " Mo Yuyunjian " Chen Qiaoen: 45 years old

Chen Qiaoen, who just held a wedding banquet this year, has also begun to fade out of the screen in recent years, and his output is not as high as before.

But as the first-generation "Taiwan puppet drama" goddess, she has left many classic screen images. In her early years, she became popular with her energetic and cute girl-next-door style.

In fact, Joe Chen has not appeared in many costume works, but in 2013, his role as Dongfang Bubai in "The Swordsman" changed the public's inherent view of him as a "vase".

Even with Brigitte Lin as her "beautiful leader", Chen Qiaoen still withstood the pressure and gave the best performance, even successfully crushing the heroine and becoming the highlight of the play.

After that, she firmly occupied the position of a first-line actress with the frequency of three or four works a year.

She slowed down until she met love.

However, it is very different from his still seemingly soft and cute appearance. After marriage, Joe Chen is also very sober, and he challenged the villain image of a vicious stepmother in this year's hit "In the Clouds".

In the play, she played the stepmother of Yang Chaoyue and Liu Xiening, who are 19 and 17 years older than them respectively.

However, Chen Qiaoen's costume appearance is extremely stunning. Not only is he not inferior to the young Xiaohua, but he looks particularly sexy because of his more skilled acting skills and experience.

's shrewdness and calculation are clearly demonstrated in her every move, which is impressive.

5. "Youth Song", " Seven Auspicious Occasions ", "Mo Yu Yun Jian" Dong Xuan: 45 years old

In the same drama, Dong Xuan of the same age played the role of Jiang Li, played by Yang Chaoyue. The biological mother, Ye Zhenzhen, was a gentle and innocent character, but she was killed early by Ji Shuran, played by Joe Chen, which was very disappointing.

As the "childhood goddess" of the 80s and 90s generations, her first work "Snowflake Goddess Dragon" was at the peak of her debut, which is unforgettable.

Dong Xuan's costume appearance is really outstanding. Even without too much complicated makeup, it can still give people a sense of gentleness and grace, such as Bian Suwen in "Eight Heroes", Su Xiaomei in "The Unruly Wife Su Xiaomei", etc.

But perhaps because of her personality, she has not become popular after many years of debut. Instead, she got married and gave birth to a daughter when her career was on the rise, and she lived a very ordinary and happy life.

However, due to an accident of her husband, the public also saw Dong Xuan's affection and righteousness - and because of this, she began to increase her workload again, and has continued to produce new works in recent years.

However, due to her age, Dong Xuan no longer plays the heroine. Instead, she mostly plays the female supporting role to make her presence felt, but she always manages to leave stunning scenes.

For example, the mermaid Lang Huan in "Mrs. Hu Zhu", Magnolia in "The Case of Di Gong of the Tang Dynasty" and so on.

Moreover, Dong Xuan is also one of the actresses who switched to playing mothers early:

As early as two years ago, she played Wu Jinyan's mother in "Heirloom". In the same year, she also appeared in the hit "Young Song Xing" Liu Xueyi’s mother.

In last year's hit "Seven Occasions of Good Luck", she played the mother of the male protagonist Ding Yuxi. There is a 16-year age difference between the two.

6. "Four Seas Chongming" Gao Lu: 42-year-old

Gao Lu, who was once affectionately called "Sister Li Zi" by the audience, is also synonymous with intellectual elegance.

She was also tepid in her early years, but she was very popular with the public. The most significant role in her early years was probably the role of Wen Qiang in "The Unruly Princess".

Because of the filming of this drama, Gao Lu had an affair with Su Youpeng, whose career was at its peak at that time. It was rumored that she had a crush on him, and they pursued her for three years. However, she never hyped it up and even came forward to refute the rumors herself.

Later, she became popular with her role as "Sister Li Zi" in "Home, nth Power". However, she was stabbed in the back by Bai Baihe, an actress in the same cast, which exposed rumors of a hidden marriage.

Gao Lu also directly admitted this. Later, she gave birth to a daughter and a son one after another in a low-key manner, but her family life did not affect her career.

She has been insisting on filming, especially the comeback film "Knowledge" after giving birth to her second child, which became an instant hit. She also became popular again because of her portrayal of the ruthless villain "Lin Xiaoniang" in the hearts of the people.

Now, Gao Lu, who intends to send her daughter into the entertainment industry, has also begun to take on the role of mother.

In this year's popular "The Great Ming Dynasty", the 42-year-old played the role of the mother to the 36-year-old Jing Tian, ​​but the two were in the same frame, which was a bit awkward.

7. "Celebrating More Than Years" Li Xiaoran: 48 years old

Li Xiaoran, who was once called "the real thing in the palm of your hand" by the outside world, was also recognized as a great beauty when she was young - even among a group of female stars, she is definitely the most beautiful. existence.

Even if she is said to have a "bitter face", it is undeniable that many of the roles she played in her early years left a deep impression on people, such as Yu Ming Ge Ge in "The Palace Baby" and Xi Xi in "The Cold Water". Red tears and so on.

But Li Xiaoran seems to be more suitable to play the role of "Cheongsam Goddess", so at one stage he often appeared in national dramas, and he and Zhong Hanliang also set a ratings record for their partnership in "Too Late to Say I Love You".

However, in recent years, after starring in various life dramas as bitter heroines, Li Xiaoran transformed into the "most beautiful villain" with the movie "Celebrating More Than Years".

Li Xiaoran, the eldest princess of the Qing Kingdom, whom she challenged to star in, is the mother of the heroine Lin Waner played by Li Qin.

When he first received the script, Li Xiaoran rejected it, not because he played the mother, but because he felt that the character design was too bad, "he was bad for the sake of being bad."

However, after the producer specially added scenes to enrich her image, she finally took over the filming and restored the role to the fullest, allowing the audience to see her persistence and plasticity in performance.

In addition, the other mother actors in "Celebrating More Than Years" are not very old, such as Yu Feihong and Sui Junbo, but they all gave their best for their roles and thus created classics.

In fact, it is not against the rules for a 40+ year old to play the mother of a little girl or a young student, but every time it is on the hot search and discussed, the reason behind it is the same as mentioned above: many female celebrities refuse to play the role and would rather Living in the dream of still being a "girl".

It’s a pity that in Hao Lei’s words: All the girls have been played by you, so what are the real girls to play?

also hopes that these beautiful sisters over 40 who are the first to wake up can take on "mother roles" with different styles and characteristics and shine on the new track.
