Richard Ng
(Ng Yiu Hon)
Actor
Richard Ng is a comedy icon in Hong Kong cinema, best known for his innocent,
bumbling characters in a wide array of films. His famous roles include Boys Are Easy
(the father of grown daughters Brigitte Lin, Maggie Cheung, and Chingmy Yau),
Winners and Sinners (an ex-con with dreams of becoming invisible), Miracles
(the clumsy police captain), and the puppy-eyed cop partnered with John Shum in
the Pom Pom series. Richard played two roles in the hilarious comedy Super Fool-
a vain HK action star who never does his own stunts, and a regular Joe who happens
to look exactly like him.
Richard now lives in England with his British wife and daughter. His son Carl Ng
has become an actor in Hong Kong like his dad.
