This is not their first stint at the Cannes Film Festival.

Michelle Yeoh on Asian representation in Hollywood
After the recent achievements of Asian films, directors, and actors, Michelle Yeoh is optimistic about the future of Asian performers in the movie industry. Yeoh discussed her 2000 film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon during her presence at the Women in Motion event. She said that Hollywood was not ready to recognise and respect Asian actors and ability back then.
In addition to the Academy Award, Michelle also won the Spirit Award, Golden Globe and SAG Award in this year’s award season. While accepting the Oscar at the 95th Academy Awards, the actress talked about never giving up on her dreams and said, "For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibilities. This is proof that dreams dream big and dreams do come true, and ladies, don’t let anybody tell you you are ever past your prime. Never give up."
