由章子怡领衔主演的《紫蝴蝶》即将于12月登陆北美，而《十面埋伏》也将于今天在美国全面上映，北美最抢手的圣诞黄金档期有两部章子怡影片闪耀银幕。也难怪近日《华盛顿邮报》称，“凭借天使面孔，以及塑造了多个身手矫健的动作女英雄形象的章子怡有望成为中国首席女星。”

Chinese film star Zhang Ziyi, who starred in the Oscar winning film 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', will launch her latest movie 'Purple Butterfly' in America.

The film, co-starring Chinese film actress Li Bingbing and Chinese king of film Liu Ye, will open in the U.S later this month.

Zhang Ziyi is one of the most successful Chinese actors this year with her martial-arts epic 'House of Flying Daggers' premiering in US tomorrow(on Friday).

Her first martial-arts hit 'Hero' dominated the North American box office for two weeks in September this year.
