The so-called "dumb actors" do not mean that these actors really can't speak, but that their performances on the screen rely too much on dubbing, and it can even be said that without the blessing of dubbing, their acting skills are greatly reduced. Such actors are often unable to independently complete the voice shaping of the character because of weak line skills, poor voice conditions or other reasons, and can only rely on professional voice actors to make up for this shortcoming. In the film and television industry, there are not a few such "dumb actors". Here are 8 of them.
1, Tang Yan
Tang Yan has focused on her daughter in recent years, and her acting career is relatively small. Despite being a 16-year-old actor, he rarely uses the original soundtrack. The audience is easily reminiscent of the commonly used voice actor Qiao Shiyu for her role, which also raises some questions. In "Yanyundae", she tried to use the original sound, but the audience's reaction was not consistent, and some people thought that she should try harder.
2, Ju Jingyi
Ju Jingyi has similar characters and makeup in a series of costume dramas, and has always relied on the same voice actors. The audience's impression of her is gradually becoming single, and I hope she can jump out of this strange circle, challenge the original sound, and show more possibilities for acting skills.
3, Yang Mi
Yang Mi's original voice rate is relatively high, but her acting skills and dubbing performance have caused controversy in recent years. Audience expectations for her were high, but her acoustic performance in some of her compositions fell short of expectations. She was under pressure to transform and had to make a breakthrough in the original soundtrack.
4, Liu Shishi
Liu Shishi once became the new goddess of ancient costumes because of "Step by Step", but her acting skills and original sound use in recent years have caused negative reviews. The audience felt that her acting skills were stagnant, and there were constant doubts about her use of dubbing. Her original soundtrack attempt in "The Golden Years" also attracted the attention of the audience.
5, Ren Jialun
Ren Jialun got a turning point in his career with "Glory of the Tang Dynasty", but due to his non-professional background, his line expression is relatively lacking. Although he tried the original sound in "Zhou Shengru", the audience's evaluation of him was not as good as before. Actors should constantly challenge themselves, even though they may face some negative reviews.
6, Wang Hedi
Wang Hedi's original soundtrack performance in "Camp with Love" caused dissatisfaction among the audience. His voice is slightly immature, which does not match the image of the boss in the play, and the audience is looking forward to a more powerful voice. The challenge of the acoustic soundtrack is a problematic one, but it is also worth affirming.
7, Cheng Yi
Cheng Yi tried the original sound for the first time in "Lotus Tower", but the audience felt out of his "little chicken mouth". Although he has used dubbing many times in costume dramas in recent years, challenging the original sound has also allowed the audience to see his hard work and courage.
8, Zhong Hanliang
Zhong Hanliang has been using dubbing when filming in the mainland due to accent problems. In 2022's "With You in This Life", he tried the original sound, but his Hong Kong-Pu accent sparked heated discussions among the audience. The audience put forward some different opinions on his Mandarin expression, which also made his "new life" road more tortuous.
In the film and television industry, acting skills are an important criterion to measure whether an actor is excellent. However, for those "dumb actors", it is difficult for them to prove themselves with real acting skills. While dubbing can add points to their performances, it also deprives them of the opportunity to hone their line skills. Therefore, we hope that these actors can face up to their own shortcomings, and strive to improve their line skills and voice expression, so that the audience can see a more real and pure performance.
