History Creator / AnthonyWong

Born to a white Australian father and a Hong Kong Chinese mother, Wong recalls his childhood being rough and somewhat traumatic; his father left his family when he was four since he already had a family in Australia (causing him to adopt his mother's surname, Wong) and he was often bullied in school due to being of mixed heritage. Wong states that he remembers living under a staircase with his mother when being evicted from their home, and working three jobs at a time as a teenager.

Oh, and he is the voice of ''WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}'' in the Cantonese dub.

* ''Film/IronButterfly'' (first movie only)

* AllTheOtherReindeer: His semi-Caucasian appearance leads to him being bullied or isolated in school.
* ButNotTooForeign: Is half-white Australian from his father's side.

* DisappearedDad: His white father walked out on his Chinese mother when he was a young boy. It turned out his father already had a family as he was married to a white woman and had three older children before starting an affair with a Hong Kong woman and siring Anthony Wong. Wong himself would [[GenerationXerox go on to do the same thing]] by cheating on his wife Jane Ng Wai with a 17 year old teenage girl named "Joyce" to produce an illegitimate son named William whom he did not have much contact with.
* EasilyForgiven: In 2018, Anthony managed to meet his two older half-brothers and forgave his father. [[https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-43538007 Seen here]].

Rather than blaming his father, Wong instead is more than happy to embrace him and his brothers. [[https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-43538007 Seen here]].

Wong began his acting career at age 21, where his mixed heritage easily earns him villainous roles, but his career didn't really take off until his performance in ''Film/TheUntoldStory''; based on a real-life murder case in Hong Kong in the early 90s, Wong's portrayal of a serial killer who made meat buns of his victims earns him 1993's Hong Kong Film Awards.
