Darren Wang or Wang Talu is a Taiwanese famous actor and Xiao Zhan is a Chinese famous actor / singer / model / graphic designer. Both have a very large international fan base! Both turned 29 this year. They both lost a family member this year. XZ lost his grandfather earlier this year and DW lost his beloved mother in early August. They are both very warm people and I am glad that they are very good friends / colleagues. The entire cast of the drama "The Wolf" went to great lengths to ensure that we viewers not only watch the drama because of an actor, but because of the implementation / plot of the story. All performers should get respect and recognition for their hard work. In the movie "The Rookies" with Darren Wang in his leading role, which was broadcast in July 2019, XZ had a 5-minute scene in the movie with DW. It was full of action and very funny at the end. In the future, I would like them both to have the opportunity to play in a drama together again. 🤗

After following him as well, I have really became his fan. Because I love them both, I have been waiting for this drama for a long time why can’t we enjoy and celebrate them, why must we create distance between the two and may cause a rip between their friendship because of this. The same thing happened to Wang Yibo and XZ. In the end they lose their very good friends and distance themselves because of the fans who’s supposedly love them. In the end the fans are the cause of all the mess happening around the actors and their friends. Why do we always have to create problems as fans. Have you guys not see the harshness of the filming? These actors worked hard to make this movie to give us pure entertainment, there has not been any good movies out there lately and this one is just one of the best. We should stop comparing because of who our favorite is. I just want life to be peaceful for the actors I love but I guess in this industry, it’s impossible, but I just want to remind everyone...please remember...they are human beings too. They get hurt, tired, cry, just like their fans. You guys should know what that feels like.

The whole cast is great so far in "the Wolf" and I think that really helps make it interesting to watch. I've liked Darren Wang and the main females and they all play their parts beautifully with Xiao Zhan! It's a fun show to watch and I really love Xiao Zhan in this part! I've not watched any spoilers and I'm still immersed in it with more episodes to go! I think no one really knows what's up with Xiao Zhan and Yibo and there are many factors that came into play with them (including demands of management, competing management, their differences in age, Their stellar unexpected rise to fame that many had not foreseen in business for casts and projections of investors and the problems this created in a period three networks were competing for the number one spot at the years end and both the network Yibo was on Day Day Up and the network Xiao Zhan was on Our Song had been drained up new talent and both were seen rather as dead in the water (since Yibo had been on DDU for years and their ratings had not risen much). Yet at the years end Xiao Xhan brought his network to the number one spot and garnered most awards, the highest star value and the highest combined star value with Yibo. As well as Xiao Zhan was featured at almost all of China's key events and performing at many of them, with those parties bumping other performers to a lower spot and some even getting cut at the end of the performance cut off while still airing. That had nothing to do with Xiao Zhan personally. He was just trying to meet everyone's demands and be where he was told to appear but it left a lot of jealousy, animousity and fear amongst management companies and I'll will amongst investors who lost money if they didn't have Xiao Zhan at their event because their likes, views and sponsors dollars feel short. Xiao Zhan could onky be in so many places st once and he was run ragged with very little backup from his manage to at the time. It wasn't til he finally hit his studio that he had a person to help with scheduling and logistics and more security. Before that he was practically hoofing it on foot from place to place using the security of whatever event or brand as he came in a side door to avoid paparazzi and fans. Yibos network came in second and they tried to get him to reel Xiao Zhan in but he had other things he wanted to do that conflicted so their cp marketing relationship was meant to come to an end. That did not set well with Yibos people because those cp fans brought in more numbers Yibo didn't have without Xiao Zhan so even though Xiao Zhan was no longer participating or benefitting from the cross marketing, Yibos manage to has still continued to try and perpetuate this. Who knows where Yibo stands in this but imagine the awkwardness of that whole scene. One other important factor also is that Xiao Zhan has tried to stay distant from most of his business associates and friends, during the black PR and antifans attacks with negative propaganda. He's the last person who would want them involved and being harmed. So whether it was Darren or Yibo or other male or female friends, unless they were in a production with him and all of that died down done, he would make a point not to wear those friendships on his sleeve or be seen with them publicly. Xiao Zhan is a really good person and has really tried to go thru this year trying to deal with things on his own. So don't be so quick to judge who and who isn't a friend despite what rumor or antifan propaganda has to say. No one knows the truth of that except Xiao Zhan and maybe one day we will all know more of the truth but people should be allowed privacy. Even celebrities. In this case Xiao Zhan and Yibos relationship have no bearing on Darren and Xiao Zhans relationship and is in no way the same. Xiao Zhan has obviously tried to not upstage others this whole year by keeping a low profile. Maybe e entually the jeslousy and rnvy of others will diminish and it will focus elsewhere. Darren however seems to be a nice all around good guy and very down to earth like Xiao Zhan, so not some one likely to be Jesus. He himself has been in multiple roles and knows any attention Xiao Zhan gets really benefits them both because as a whole the show because of him brings in more views, likes and happy viewers! It exposes more people to him as fans and the female main characters as well. It's a win win all around!

Darren Wang seems pretty smart and it's obvious he and Xiao Zhan are friends and he recommended Xiao Xhan fir a part in "the Rookies after. Even in that you can see they play well together even though Xiao Zhan is in a smaller part. I think what's important is that both Xiao Zhan and Darren Wang are doing a good job and I also think the female leads are really doing a good job as well. Overall it's a good cast which helps make it so enjoyable to watch! Plus it's got baby wolves and a beautiful setting! What's there not to love! I have refused to watch spoilers so I'm still in the midst of it but it definately seems to have picked up the pace when Xiao Zhan came on which I really like. I have yet to figure out why but the initial episodes in Chinese costume dramas always seem to drag a bit for me but when he cames in (even in a smaller role in Joy to Life) the pacing seems to move faster. It might just be the editing or Xiao Xhan himself and how he effects the pacing but either way I'm always glad when it starts picking up. I've noticed this in most costume dramas so it might just be a standard part of them all. Either way I'm really enjoying the series!
I'm a big fan of Xiao zhan since oh my emperor and with every roles he did his acting is always superb. for The Wolf, Darren really did an excellent job in portraying his character. His acting gives me chills, it was so good I couldn't imagine anyone else in that role. Great job to all the wolf actors and production team! ❤️

I was aware they were friends and Darren Wang really liked filming the Wolf with Xiao Zhan and recommended him for a spot on "The Rookies" with him. Of course he still had to audition to get the part but I think it is obvious in "the Wolf" they work well together if youve seen the BTS clips. Xiao Zhan seems polite, congenial and respectful to everyone but those he considers friends he keeps, even if he doesn't wear those friendships on his sleeve. I think Xiao Zhan worked hard to distance himself from many of his friends and work associates in terms of the media and visibility when he was being attacked with negative propaganda by the black PR group and their antifans, hackers, wranglers, handlers and cohorts. I'm so glad to see this clip as I hadn't seen it in a while and was glad to be reminded of it. I think all of the main actors in "the Wolf" are doing a great job, Xiao Zhan, Darren and the female leads". I think the plot is great and the setting is beautiful. I think "the Untamed" had that same good composition of elements, as well as did the "Joy of Life". I think a hallmark of Xiao Xhan is that he brings great enthusiasm to any role and is willing to work as hard as it takes to make a project successful. However the success of a show doesn't depend on just Xiao Zhan, it also depends on the vision of the director and his ability to communicate that, the scenery, setting, props, effects, cinematography, editing, sound track and the competency and talent of the other actors as well as the chemistry in how they work together. So far I've liked everything I saw in the episodes I've seen. For some reason they always seem to drag out the beginning of costume dramas and so there's always this slower pace at the beginning but when it gets to Xiao Zhan it seems to move along faster and is more plot and action driven. Which I really appreciate. I noticed this slowness of pace at the beginning in both "the Untamed" and "Joy of Life" and yet both of those were great so it just seems to be a part of these formulas or an editing decision. I was also surprised at the amount of cgi until I realized there were people who apparently aren't fans of animals being used in films so that was apparently a good decision on the directors part! Xiao Zhan luckily seems to be in a great position in all of these films and maybe in some way his more emotive style helps the pacing feel less noticeable when he comes on scene. Which is funny when you think about it because they were all three different roles he played in the Untamed, Joy of Life and now the Wolf. In "Joy of Life" in particular Xiao Zahn had a much smaller role and yet from the time he first showed up on the scene the pacing seemed to move along faster and even though his role was small he really stole the show in that series just as he did in "the Untamed." What especially drew so much attention to Xiao Zhan in that role in JOL was that it was so different to his role on the Untamed. So different that people at first didn't recognize him he was so controlled, tightly wound and gave nothing away. The very opposite of Wei Ying. Which confused some people but was exactly how the director had wanted him to play that role. Then from the time he stepped into the frame his character became super intriguing and mysterious just by its very difference as fans tried to unravel the mystery that was felt within his roll but with no answer til the very end. Then WOW I think every bodies mind was blown when at the very end he turned out to be the assassin who made his move! I never ever saw that coming! It not only was a scene stealer and an amazing super cou of an ending but it also made an intense cliff hanger and left people dying for more!!! That director definately knew what he was doing and got a Big Bang out of one actor and a small role! Xiao Zhan is a great character actor and really has the ability to emerge himself very realistically in a role but also knows how to deliver that "POP!" no matter the size of his part, to make his character, his scene and the whole show more memorable. I think there's a true art to that beyond what any camera, lighting and makeup guy can lend you and even goes beyond being able to read lines and act out a character. Xiao Zhan can do more with a smoky room and the upturn of a hat, where you only see his eyes exposed in the frame, then any actor I've seen. You see it in his photo shoots, his short videos and head shots for games, in his own stage presence when he performs and in other roles he's played. There's a scene in "Our Song" where Xiao Zhan is performing a number with his mentor Na Ying and he is wearing a sequin blue jacket and black jeans. At the end of the song he quickly turns and lifts his hand alongside his face and looks directly into the camera. Up til that point in the song he was clearly having fun with the song and that one look juxtaposed against all of the rest of the performance says it all. That was a look that would stop traffic even in the busy streets of New York. He started laughing and smiling after that but his ability to project that look on a dime is something people in Hollywood and entertainment circles around the world pay for. It's that "IT" factor not everyone can muster but that he is so good at. Xiao Zhan has a really dynamic range and is great with character transitions from subtle to diametrically opposed, like in the bubbly, friendly, jesting, good hearted Wei Ying compared to the Yiling Patriarch, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation who was vengeful, vicious, murderous with only one desire... to kill the Wens and make Wen Chous death as torturous and drawn out as possible. With each role Xiao Zhan gets he hones his skills more and it's so much fun to watch him evolve and see what the next role will hold and how he will portray it. I think the popularity of his name was used to promote Joy of Life and really so many people tuned in to watch it specifically because he was in it, even in a smaller role but when you saw the season ending you realize that was a really a hint to his characters importance that no one had even for seen in the final episode. They assured themselves a season two with that cliff hanger and now everyone is excited to see what was behind the characters icy mask in that role. I personally hope to see anger, anguish and vengefulness unwind with maybe even more things hidden no one even guessed! I'm still into "the Wolf" and refused to watch spoilers, so I can't wait to see how it ends but I'm loving Xiao Zhan in this role and really think they all are doing great. That to me is the mark of a really good show like "the Untamed" and "Joy of Life", when everybody does a good job. Plus "the Wolf" has baby wolves...who couldn't like it! Someone compared it to Twilight and I thought "not unless Xiao Zhan busts out some fangs I'm not expecting"...but wouldn't he make an awesome Vampire! Maybe that will be him and Darren Wangs next film together! With Xiao Zhan as the hot intense bloodsucking territorial vampire and Darren as the Wolf love interest trying to steal the girl away, with clashes between the Vampire and Wolves family's! There still a Twilight tour in Forks, Washington the director can go on to get a feel for that eerie Washington rainy, foggy setting if they do something similar. I bet the author would love to see a Chinese version made! They just replayed the movies last year in theatres and its audience is still huge, with fans still wanting more! I keep hoping they will eventually have a steam punk fantasy punk film like "Carnival Row" where Xiao Zhan can sport that white hair and mythical look he wore in a brand campaign. I can see both him and Darren Wang in that as well. However I have a feeling they both see themselves doing the next big action drama and I'm hoping for them on that because I think they would do well in a big action movie based on that scene they did together in "the Rookies". Like in a real action thriller like mission impossible with people scaling skyscrapers and hanging on yo glass elevators from the top as they plummet down! There's also a show called the Bridge I would love to see them both in that would have a large cast if it ever gets made. Xiao Zhan works well with others, so he would be great in an ensemble cast because he has the strength of personality to stand out within the group and be a very dynamic part of the cast, without his presence getting lost in it. I recall from the very first interview I saw Xiao Zhan in, while he was still on X-FIRE, the roles he said he was hoping to play one day and I think he is seriously working on that bucket list, so it might be a pilot he ends up playing next! He's already played several of the roles he mentioned now, including a soldier in the show he's been filming. So the next role could be a pilot or a master criminal who out thinks and continually manages to escape the clutches of a sleuth who is on his trail and trying to capture him! That is if anyone's making those films or series coming up. He can only act in roles that are available and the pandemic has limited many of those or postponed them. The great thing about Xiao Zhan is he is very down to earth, eager to learn, not afraid to get down and gritty in a role or take a chance nor does he have a problem taking a role that's smaller if he likes the production or feels the role is challenging and offers something new and interesting. One of the directors Xiao Zhan had, pointed out how pleased they were to see how seriously Xiao Zhan took to any role and how much thought and observation he came to any role with, as well as how much dedication and time he was willing to give. I look forward to watching more of "the Wolf" and seeing his other films come out as well!

Swear Darren is a god for the wolf! I’m so so glad he was lead. After finishing it, I’m glad that he was chosen for that part. Xiao Zhan is wonderful and I’m a huge fan too (way before the untamed) but he’s such a cuties that I can’t imagine him playing a bad boy tough wolf. So I have to give it to Darren, his body type & everything was great to match a wolf tough boy! People need to stop being toxic and give credits where it’s due. Instead people are way too toxic. Definitely was a great drama and all actors and actress did wonderful! But Darren was top notch for his acting. He played such an innocent cutie to a bad boy. Love! And definitely will support him in the future!!! He deserve the spot light!

I thank the author for his work. Xiao Zhan is my favorite actor, singer, person. I love all his friends who stayed with him in the most difficult times for him. I watch "The Wolf" and understand that I really like Darren Wang - he has the appearance of an American Indian (I noticed him for a long time, in particular, in the video of his meeting with Xiao Zhan). Darren has the same warm smile as Zhan Zhan, and in general, I find them very similar in their inner essence. And I want their friendship to continue, despite all the vicissitudes and trials of time, fame, belated broadcast of "Wolf", distorted by the influence of pseudo-fans or not very smart fans. These two are a wonderful example of truly human friendship. Thank heavens for meeting them on the set, for supporting one another. It's a bit of a shame that their meeting with the audience was postponed for such a long time. Blessed be their new roles and new meetings! Grow together in creativity, may the love of your admirers be with you! Благодарю автора за работу. Сяо Чжань - мой любимый актер, певец, человек. Люблю всех его друзей, которые остались с ним в самые трудные для него времена. Смотрю "Волка" и понимаю, что мне очень нравится Даррен Ван - у него внешность американского индейца ( я давно на него обратила внимание, в частности, в видео его встречи с Сяо Чжанем). У Даррена такая же, как у Чжань Чжаня, теплая улыбка и вообще, нахожу их очень похожими по внутренней своей сути. И я хочу, чтобы их дружба продолжалась, несмотря ни на какие перипетии и испытания временем, славой, запоздалой трансляцией "Волка", искаженным влиянием псевдофанатов или не очень умных фанатов. Эти двое - прекрасный образец истинно человеческой дружбы. Стоит поблагодарить небеса за их встречу на съемочной площадке, за поддержку одного другим. Немного жаль, что их встреча со зрителями была отложена на столь долгое время. Благословенны да будут их новые роли и новые встречи! Растите вместе в творчестве, да пребудет с вами любовь ваших почитателей!

Darren Wang’s acting excelled all the leads in China. He has an uncanny ability to play conflicted dark side with tender light side. What he delivered in the role of Lord Wolf Bo was breath taking at times. The director is extraordinary and the writers talent to type rope walk the sado masichistic yin and Yang of that role was excellently balanced. It was so refreshing to see a masculine strong male lead. No holding back. Hope Darren finds equally fascinating roles to portray on camera. Hope he is just warming up that dark side!

Thank you so much for posting this very sweet view into these amazing fellows. I am new to watching this style of series and it was The Untamed that introduced me to the most amazing, unexpected entertainment journey I have ever been on. Being from Canada I'm so used to the NA perspective/experience of movies/series and it's been just utterly delightful to discover such rich, vibrant new territory with SO many talented, utterly dynamic and beautiful people. I absolutely fell in love with Wolfie, not gonna lie. I finished watching The Wolf a few days ago and I still haven't fully recovered from missing them all. Even though Xiao Zhan and Wang Yi Bo are fully responsible for me becoming obsessed with watching Chinese series, I have quickly realized there are many, MANY gifted actors I still need to discover and Darren Wang is certainly on my "must watch more of!" list now. What a treat and adventure to look forward to in 2021!!

This is my first time get to know the existence of Darren Wang and Xiao Zhan from any Chinese drama...I must say Darren Wang is an actor with diversity. Wolf is considered "noble" among the Native American tribal legends. Although I have followed Chinese dramas for only a few years since the drama Princess Agents, I can think of a few other actors can do Ji Chong, such as Shawn Dou, but (in my shallow Chinese drama experience) I cannot come up with any other actor can carry the alpha wolf better than Darren. I hope Darren Wang will meet great directors for great roles as he grows. With his talent, he can be just as great as Jack Nicholson, Robert De Niro, or, for that matter, Marlon Brando, ageless legend among actors. I have finished watching the entire 49 eps and am a little abscessed with this drama. Chinese dramas are getting better and better! Thank you for sharing.
@nccudiamat4 жыл бұрын
Oh my, I was thinking the same thing. I think his acting talent is superb, set apart from everyone - and I have been watching C dramas for a long time. Never did i get invested in the actors in any other drama because I'm one of those who just want to appreciate a good drama with a good story and plot. I loved princess agent, ever night, joy of life, ashes of love the most, now the Wolf is included in that short list. But DW's acting caught my eye. There is something different about him and his charisma is off the chart. I think its because his acting was so seamless you didn't see an actor at all. It's a rare gem for an actor to not only take you into a journey with their acting but also let you feel what the character was feeling to the point you can emphatize with the character no matter how bad they get. He's such a good character actor just like the actors you mentioned. I hope he gets more good roles and stay away from being matinee idol. In my opinion matinee idols are so overrated and they seldom grow as an actors because they are always stuck in one dimensional roles.
@BeautifulThingBoutiq4 жыл бұрын
@@nccudiamat well said. I don't know too many Chinese actors, but I do enjoy Shawn Dou, Godfery Gao (too bad, he passed on...), and now Darren Wang. Yes, I did watch Ashes of Love a year ago, and, Ode of Joy of those 5 women two year ago. Last year, I also watched Nothing but Thirty about 3 women's challenges in Shanghai. These were all very good dramas, but nothing compares to The Wolf, as you described, that Darren Wang takes you into his character and "let you feel" the plot. You are absolutely right, Darren is certainly not an everyday matinee idol controlled by fans. There was an American Native Indian legend, the Crazy Horse, that a mountain monument was developed and built in memory of him in South Dakota. I think Darren Wang should be a good fit to play the role of this Crazy Horse should Hollywood consider to remake a movie about this American Indian legend.

Yes, C drama is definitely getting better. I just wish the government will.stop censoring too much. The Wolf is supposed to be 58 episodes long and we're supposed to sed Wolfboy's transformation to Lord Bo how he got those supernatural powers, his connection to his 1st brother, and history of night fury and Yao Ji. Hopd they come out with the director's cut for international viewers. I can't wait for another drama from DW but I think he prefers to do movies. I hope he changes his mind, I think he'll do well in drama series.
