Liu argued that no Asian actor has caused a studio to lose significant money, unlike some white actors who have lost hundreds of millions yet continue to secure leading roles.
Other Asian actors, including Manny Jacinto, John Cho, and Daniel Dae Kim, shared similar frustrations regarding stereotypical roles, a lack of romantic leads, and nationality-specific casting.
Daniel Dae Kim, with three decades in the industry, expressed his ongoing wait for a romantic lead role and criticised the overcorrection in Hollywood's nationality-specific casting for Asian characters.
