HEY SO.

I need a list of characters who are Chinese/of Chinese descent in English language texts. So far I have:

Jubilation Lee
Cho Chang
Huang (from SVU)
Isabella (from the recent Miami Vice movie)
Whoever Michelle Yeoh played in Tomorrow Never Dies


...


I would appreciate any and all assistance with this.

Perhaps it is dorky, but I have a kidlet, so--Wanda, from The Magic School Bus is of Chinese descent, I believe.

And this is debatable, but a portion of Firefly fandom will read River and Simon as half-Chinese. That's mostly a fannish interpretation, though, so I don't know if you want to include it.

There's also Cassandra from The Scorpion King. Her ancestry is never made clear, but Kelly Hu is part Chinese. (I think her X-Men 2 character, Lady Deathstrike, is Japanese, though.)

Also just about every character in The Joy Luck Club--first a book, later a movie.
