Artist Cong Ly's absence from film addressed by wife
Ngoc Ha, the wife of renowned People's Artist Cong Ly, recently addressed public speculation regarding her husband's absence from film productions. She clarified that while he has recovered from a previous serious illness, he has not been actively filming due to a lack of suitable invitations.
Ngoc Ha noted that while some offers are made, production crews often hesitate to cast him in minor or short-term roles. She explained that given his status and age, audiences expect more profound performances rather than brief appearances. Additionally, she suggested that after years of dedication to the arts, it is a suitable time for him to rest and avoid the strenuous schedules and harsh weather conditions associated with filming.
