Who acts under their real names？ Both Hu Ge and Chen Yirong have used them, and all five of his works use their real names

In many film and television dramas, some actors use their real names instead of character names.

In some movies and TV dramas, the actors’ real names are used to increase authenticity and credibility, making the audience more immersive while watching; in others, the actors’ real names are used as a small burden in movies and TV dramas, adding drama and a sense of humor to amuse the audience. Let’s see who has ever used their real names instead of character names?

Zhang Yimou’s "No One Less" is based on Shi Xiangsheng’s novel "There is a Sun in the Sky" and tells a simple but touching story. Wei Minzhi, a substitute teacher in rural areas, adheres to the belief that "no one can be missing". After learning that a student Zhang Huike dropped out of school and went to work in the city, she embarked on the road to the city alone to find people.

All the characters in the film are amateur actors. Zhang Yimou interviewed more than 20,000 actors to find a better fit for the role, and finally selected Wei Minzhi. Except for Wei Minzhi, other actors also use their real names in the film, and most of the actors’ identities in the film are also the same as their real identities.

It is worth mentioning that after the filming of the film, Wei Minzhi and Zhang Huike have been sponsored by kind people to go to school, so that they can successfully complete their studies. Wei Minzhi was later admitted to the Western Film and Television Media School of Xi’an Foreign Studies University and went to the United States to study.

"My name is Hu Ge, and I’m from Shanghai," Mr. Hu said in a cameo on the medical drama "Surgery." He himself was born in Shanghai, and that line fits with the truth about himself.

Previously, in the TV series "Xuanyuan Sword", Chen Jingchou also cued Hu Ge: "I really don’t know the person named Gu Yue, but there is a person named Hu Ge who is a heartthrob in the village."

In the movie "Pancake Man," Dapeng’s character, Dapeng, is an actor who has fallen to the bottom of his life due to an accident. In order to save his life, he has to find many big-name stars to make movies with. The stars’ failure to make an appointment left him in a state of extreme anxiety. A series of ironic stories ensued.

In this movie, Liu Yan, Wu Junru, Zeng Zhiwei, Yue Yunpeng, Deng Chao and others all starred under their real names.

In Deng Chao’s self-directed romantic comedy "Breakup Master", Deng Chao’s "breakup master" Mei Yuangui and Beipiao’s tough female man Ye Xiaochun staged a "dumbest but touching romantic comedy in history". Deng Chao and Yang Mi’s combination is novel and very suitable, and both of them are very open-minded and contribute a lot of famous scenes. The whole film is very dense, and the audience laughs from time to time. Eagle-eyed audiences must have also seen the figure of "Empress" Sun Li in the movie. She plays Sun Li, and she is also an actress.

"Stars in the Snow" is a youth idol drama starring He Rundong, Chen Yirong, Qiu Ze, Hu Yaping, etc. It mainly tells the poignant love story between a girl and a terminally ill painter.

The heroine’s name was Chen Yirong. The storyline seemed rather old-fashioned now, involving siblings, the relationship between the two families, cancer and other factors, but the combination of handsome men and beautiful women was still very eye-catching.

None of the above are as powerful as Jiang Chao, who used his real name in five movies and TV dramas. The five movies and TV dramas are "Summer Sweetheart", "One Night in Chengdu", "Run Away Sweetheart", "Rush Bar Otaku" and "Youth Hormones".

In 2010, Jiang Chao participated in the Hunan Satellite TV idol talent show "Happy Male Voice" and successfully advanced to the top 20 in the country. Jiang Chao also captured a large number of fans with his elegant looks and gentle and affectionate voice.

After his debut, many cast members threw olive branches to Jiang Chao because of his outstanding appearance. Jiang Chao also starred in films and television dramas such as "Tiny Times", "Summer of the Fox", "Little Dog Season 3", "Lust Game" and "Female Prince", but he was always tepid. Although his career was not satisfactory, Jiang Chao’s love life was still very happy. Jiang Chao’s wife is a Xinjiang actress – Madina, two people are talented and beautiful, and their relationship is very harmonious. After marriage, a family of four is also happy and sweet!

Hu Ge, Chen Yirong, and others have all used their real names instead of character names. Do you know any actors who use their real names directly in their works?
