Chinese actor (born 1996) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guo Qilin (Chinese: 郭麒麟; born February 8, 1996)[1] is a Chinese actor[2] and xiangsheng performer.[3] He is known for his appearances in Deyunshe xiangsheng performances and his role in the historical series My Heroic Husband (2021).[4]
Guo was born in Tianjin, China. His father is crosstalk comedian Guo Degang,[5] the owner of performance art group Deyunshe (德云社). His teacher is Yu Qian (于谦), and his crosstalk partner is Yan Hexiang (阎鹤祥).[6][7] Guo has been fond of xiangshang and Peking opera since he was around three years old, and he was able to tell stories in the crosstalk form since he was five.[8] He joined his father's performance group with hopes of revitalizing the art form.[9]
In 2011, Guo quit school and began performing as a xiangsheng performer in Deyun Team 4 (德云四队). In 2012, he held a personal special performance at the Beijing Exhibition Center.[10]
He expanded his career in both film and television.[9] In 2015, Guo was the lead actor in the film Our Happiness directed by his father Guo Degang. It was his first appearance on the big screen.[11] He was one of the lead actors in the film Adoring (2019). His natural performance boosted his reputation in the Chinese film industry,[12] with many starting to pay attention to him as a professional actor instead of a simple comedian. Guo further appeared in two films with excellent casts and production teams. The first, World's Greatest Dad (2022),[13] starred Yu Hewei and Ni Hongjie; the second one, Ride On (2023),[14] starred Jackie Chan and Liu Haocun. These collaborations helped Guo build a solid position in the entertainment industry.
In 2021, Guo played the lead role in My Heroic Husband alongside Song Yi,[4] and his performance received positive feedback.[15] The popularity of the series reached 10,000 points in iQIYI, breaking records on the streaming platform.[16]
Guo made his stage debut in 2019 with the role of Niu Tianci in The Story of Niu Tianci[17][15] and won the New Actor of the Year in the 2021 One Drama Awards for the work.[18]
