The King of the Night Actor Compared to Andy Hui, Sammi Cheng Jokes He Looks Like Her Husband: “No Wonder He Gets More Handsome”

(Hong Kong, 20th) The major Hong Kong release Night King is produced by the original team behind the box-office hit A Guilty Conscience and directed by award-winning filmmaker Jack Ng. The film stars Dayo Wong alongside Sammi Cheng, making it one of the most talked-about collaborations.

The film has grossed over HKD 95 million in Hong Kong and performed well in Malaysia, earning around RM10 million so far. Its fast-paced comedic style has been widely praised, particularly the chemistry between the leads and the emotional storyline involving Fish Liew. The latter half of the film introduces business and espionage elements, adding unexpected twists.

Actor Yeung Wai Lun, who plays a nightclub manager, stands out as a key comedic highlight. His appearances consistently trigger laughter, with audiences noting that even his body language alone is enough to entertain.

A standout scene featuring him and Dayo Wong demonstrating how to charm customers became a major comedic peak, especially with his repeated catchphrase that kept audiences laughing.

Originally from a theater background, Yeung gained recognition after being nominated for Best Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards for The Sparring Partner. His comedic turn in Night King showcases a completely different side of his talent.

Fans have also noticed his resemblance to Andy Hui, with Sammi Cheng herself jokingly agreeing, saying the more she looks, the more she sees the similarity.
