Tran Hieu appeared with an alarmingly thin body, tired face and pale skin.
The actor wore black and had long hair, he looked completely different from the familiar image that once made an impression in the role of Tham Tinh Di in "That Year the Flowers of the Moon Bloomed and Roadted", or Duong Qua was in "Tan Thien De Dai Tu".
Although he deliberately wore a loose, shoulder-width coat, Tran Hieu could not hide his skinny figure, deep and gray eyes.
When signing, his hands trembled, causing the letters to shiver, looking at the question board, he had to close his eyes only about 10cm away to be able to read. Many viewers could not believe that this was the appearance of a 38-year-old actor.
Tran Hieu and Tran Nghien Hy announced their divorce in February this year. After the broken marriage, Tran Hieu has not appeared in public for many months and has not had any new works on air.
There are rumors that Tran Hieu returned to his hometown in Anhui (China) to recover his spirit. The image of the actor having to be flu fluid-proofed in the hospital has spread. The diagnosis paper reads: "Nutritious, static".
During that time, Tran Hieu's studio posted a photo of the actor with toc vang, at that time he had shown signs of serious weight loss. Fans are worried because more than half a year has passed and Tran Hieu has not been able to regain his form.
However, according to the media, the change in Tran Hieu's image was to serve the new role.
In the film The Great Businessman (roughly translated: The Great Businessman), Tran Hieu plays Co Binh Nguyen, a trader of the late Qing Dynasty - who rose from a physician to become a trading hero.
Right from the beginning of the film, this character was transported to Ninh Co Thap, with a straight head, bare feet, wearing prison clothes, while holding half a calculator in his hand and cows in the snow.
To recreate this extreme hunger, Tran Hieu lost nearly 8kg. Before filming, the actor went to the competition to get a certificate for mid-range tea assessment, practicing turmeric tea to the point of closing his eyes and smelling the tea growing area.
The employee revealed that Tran Hieu's long-term fasting led to hypoglycemia. The actor fainted twice while filming an action scene, and had to be hospitalized for a recurring stomach disease. Last year, after a scene filmed in the rain, the assistant had to wrap 3 cotton blankets for Tran Hieu, but he still trembled for 4 hours to stabilize and return.
For half a year after the divorce, Tran Hieu seems to have devoted all his energy to work.
The producer of Dai sinh y nhan praised Tran Hieus spirit because he could ignore everything for the role. When filming the scene of being sold into captivity, Tran Hieu really knelt and crawled on the snow in the monsoon weather, his fingers cracked to the point of bleeding.
veteran actor Hoang Chi Trung, when filming the scene of confronting Tran Hieu, was also overwhelmed by the eyes of "the despair of mixing the effects of punishing traders".
The film "Dai sinh y nhan" starring Tran Hieu, Ton Thien, La Nhat Chau will air on the evening of November 25.
