‘Red Carpet’ Book Excerpt: How Fan Bingbing Went From China’s Most Famous Actress To Its Most Famous Cautionary Tale

Editor’s Note: Wall Street Journal reporter Erich Schwartzel’s new book Red Carpet: Hollywood, China and the Global Battle for Cultural Supremacy includes a chapter on Fan Bingbing, one of China’s biggest global stars who disappeared from public view in 2018 shortly after she was cast to star in the female action spy movie The 355.
