She’s Ah Toy on Warrior, Mei Lin on Netflix’s Marco Polo, and now starring in the hit sequel Ready or Not 2. Today on Reppin, Olivia joins me to talk about her life, leadership, and how she found her voice — on-screen and off. Olivia has built a career playing strong, layered, unforgettable characters. In this episode, she dives into Ready or Not 2, stepping into a high-council family leader role in a deadly “double-or-nothing” hunt. She also opens up about her life — those messy, human truths we all carry — and how that fuels her craft. You'll gain insight into where her cultural pride, grit, and perspective comes from. She talks honestly about bullying, racism, and moments that could have held her back — and how she turned those experiences into empathy, strength, and leadership. You’ll also get a chance to see the real Olivia Cheng — the person behind the roles — as she shares personal stories and challenges that shaped her perspective and how those experiences help bring these incredible characters that we love to life.
