What's After the Movie

Jimmy Wong

Jimmy Wong (born James Franklin Wong on March 28, 1987) is an American actor and musician who first gained widespread attention in 2011 with his viral music video 'Ching Chong: Asians in the Library Song'. The video was a satirical response to a UCLA student’s anti‑Asian rant and demonstrated Wong’s ability to blend humor with social commentary, earning coverage from MSNBC, NPR and national news outlets. Raised in Normandy Park, Washington, Wong graduated from Middlebury College in 2009 with a theater and drama major before moving to Los Angeles to pursue acting. He has since built a diverse career that spans web series, feature films, television, and video games, most notably portraying Ted in the popular web series Video Game High School and appearing as Ling in Disney’s 2020 live‑action remake of Mulan. In addition to acting, Wong is an accomplished musician, co‑hosting the YouTube cooking show 'Feast of Fiction' and collaborating on the variety show Polaris Primetime for Disney XD’s D|XP block. His passion for gaming is evident through his frequent appearances on the Command Zone podcast, where he is affectionately called “Jimmy the Red” for his love of red commander decks, and his voice role as Jay in the 2022 game BONELAB. Wong’s personal life reflects his multicultural heritage; his father hails from Canton, China, while his mother possesses Chinese and Mongol ancestry, and he is the younger brother of filmmaker Freddie Wong. He became engaged to Rosanna Wang in December 2020, married on February 28 2021, and welcomed their first son, Mason, in February 2022, adding a new chapter to his already vibrant career.
