Hanoi [Vietnam], February 10: Actress Hong Anh is attracting attention with her impressive appearances in 6 feature films scheduled for release in theaters in 2026.
Approaching 50, Hong Anh surprised everyone by appearing in six major film projects in a short period of time. This number is enough to make Hong Anh one of the most sought-after actresses in Vietnamese cinema in 2026, and also affirms her rare status as a talented actress still in her prime.
Opening this series of comebacks is "Who Loves Whom ," in which Hong Anh plays Thuong in her old age. Although she only appears at the end of the film, her character leaves a deep emotional impact thanks to her restrained acting, calm gaze, and the way she conveys the experienced feelings of a woman who has gone through many upheavals in life. Without heavy dialogue or dramatic emotions, Hong Anh's presence gives the feeling that the story concludes in a complete and satisfying way.
Shortly after, the actress continued to attract attention in "My Child Tells Me" with her portrayal of a shamanic medium, imbued with spiritual and mysterious elements. While not a central character, she created an unsettling and haunting atmosphere throughout the film. With just her gaze and deep voice, Hong Anh made the role an unforgettable part of the story.
In the project "Tai," directed by Mai Tai Phen and produced by My Tam , Hong Anh appears as a cold, strong, and assertive "gangster boss." Although details of her role remain under wraps, her appearance and demeanor suggest that this is a challenging role requiring strong acting skills.
Hong Anh's appearance in director Phan Gia Nhat Linh's Blood Moon Feast 8 further demonstrates her versatility. Her character is a crucial link in this psychological feast full of contradictions, contributing to the tense and suffocating atmosphere characteristic of this film.
Most notably, she plays the lead role in "Hero ," where Hong Anh reunites with director Vo Thach Thao and co-star Thai Hoa. This is considered a pivotal role in this year's series of projects, promising to further affirm the depth of her acting and professional prowess as an actress in her late 40s.
The finale is Madames, a classic and elegant film that recreates the image of sophisticated ladies from the 1960s. With its elaborate setting and characters with multiple layers of emotion, this is both a challenge and a familiar platform for Hong Anh to showcase her subtlety and inner depth.
Hong Anh's widespread popularity in 2026 is not a fleeting phenomenon, but the result of a persistent and serious career journey spanning nearly three decades. At nearly 50 years old, she continues to dedicate herself to reinventing herself and affirming the enduring value of a talented actress. Therefore, 2026 becomes a special milestone, where Hong Anh will not only be in high demand but will also continue to be an irreplaceable face in Vietnamese cinema.
