THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS’ Godfrey Gao is an ‘international star you should know’

Variety posted an article about Godfrey Gao (Magnus Bane) telling the world that he is an ‘international star you should know.’

GETTING UP TO SPEED

Gao says the pace of work is different in Asia than in North America. “In Asia, it is very hectic — there is no overtime, no holidays, no weekends. It’s pretty rushed because they are trying to cut the deadline,” he says. “I realized for ‘Mortal Instruments,’ the schedules said we had Saturdays and Sundays off. That is not the case in China. For television, we can complete eight to nine pages per day.”

LOOKING FORWARD

“ ‘Mortal Instruments’ is definitely a start,” he says. “I hope it’s the key for me to come across to Hollywood. Hopefully I can go back and forth from the United States to Asia. I feel joint productions could be the way of the future. I’ll need a private plane to charter the international waters!”
