I feel like there are just not too well known. Here are some I personally like:
Sung Kang in Fast and Furious and in Netflix movie Code 8 Why is Bruce Lee the only Asian Male to challenge the stereotype of how badly we are portrayed in Hollywood?

Donnie Yen in Star Wars Why is Bruce Lee the only Asian Male to challenge the stereotype of how badly we are portrayed in Hollywood?

Steven Yeun in general Why is Bruce Lee the only Asian Male to challenge the stereotype of how badly we are portrayed in Hollywood?

At least for me personally I like these examples.

That’s all good homie it’s probably just a jealous Asian girl that doesn’t want these actors to have the spotlight. Your answer is great

How did he challenge stereotypes? He only completed one American movie.

Bruce Lees death catapulted him into worldwide stardom. If he hadn't of died an untimely death , before he had the chance to make it big-time , he may not be the masculine martial arts hero he is today

I liked Henry Golding in Crazy Rich Asians.
He played the leading man and got the most beautiful woman in the world.
I'm jealous of that Asian guy.

He’s NOT Asian. He’s half white so it’s a massive difference

Oh really?
I did not know that.
I totally agree that Asian actors need more diverse roles in hollywood.
All the time that people were complaining about black actors not having enough oscars I was like "What about Asian actors?"

ok but Bruce Lee himself is also 1/4 white sorry to say this. But to me he is just Asian anyway. Like even Joseph Gordon-Levitt is Jewish or something but to me he looks Asian so I count him too hahahaha
