China
Xu-Holland started her acting career in China-Hollywood co-production The Last Race (2016) directed by Stephen Shin. The Last Race is an unofficial sequel to the Academy Award winning story of Chinese-born Scottish Olympic gold medalist Eric Liddell, Chariots of Fire (1981).[5] In The Last Race, Xu-Holland plays Catherine Standish, a fictional character whom Eric Liddell, played by Joseph Fiennes, gave up his chance of repatriation arranged between the British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, and the Japanese government.[6] Liddell later died in the Weixian Internment Camp in Weifang, China.[7]
Xu-Holland is best recognized for her work in China, such as television series “Borderland Love” (2018) written by award-winning Chinese Gao Mantang and online film Special Mission (2018). In 2019, Xu-Holland stars in one of China's most highly anticipated films The Eight Hundred (2019) directed by Guan Hu, alongside Li Chen and Yao Chen.[8]
