Join the Interior Design program at Parsons School of Constructed Environments as we chat with actor, director, and producer Daniel Wu about how studying architecture influences his career in film. Daniel has 78 credits to his name including the recent Warner Brothers film, Reminiscence, the AMC kung-fu series, Into the Badlands, and New Police Story.
Daniel will discuss what led him from architecture to acting and how the design process he learned in school informs character development, production, and set design. We’ll also have a chance to hear how Daniel is responding to the recent rise in anti-Asian violence in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This discussion will be moderated by BFA Interior Design Director, Yu Nong Khew; Adjunct Part-time faculty and founder of Weetu, Carly Cannell; and SCE Associate Dean, Cotter Christian with the opportunity for questions and discussion with participants.

Daniel Wu is an American actor, director, producer, race car driver, and most recently community activist. After graduating from the University of Oregon in 1997 with a degree in architecture, Wu went to Hong Kong on what was meant to be a short graduation trip. He was soon discovered by art house film director Yonfan and was asked to play the lead role in his first film, “Bishonen”. Wu quickly rose to stardom and has made over 60 films in 20 years while playing a wide range of roles ranging from historical figures to action heroes in “Man with the Iron Fists” (2012), “Tomb Raider” (2018), “Warcraft” (2016) and “Caught in Time” (2020) to name a few. In 2016, Daniel moved back to the States to Executive produce and star in the AMC action series “ Into the Badlands ”. Wu can next be seen in Lisa Joy’s feature directorial debut, romantic sci-fi noir thriller “Reminiscence” (2021).
