Personality

What personality type is Donnie Yen? Donnie Yen is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - so/sx - 974 in Enneagram, in Big 5, SLI in Socionics.

The xSFP consensus came from another page of typing before, and, mostly relying on his quotes ... "I just like to choose projects that will allow me as an artist to make my art." "When you watch my films, you're feeling my heart." "Martial art is a form of expression, an expression from your inner self to your hands and legs." ...and interviews: Q: Acting isn’t a form of putting a mask on. When you’re done with a role, how do you usually get out of it? Is there a specific method? R (Donnie): Actually, that’s a very good question. I actually have a lot of discussion [about this] with my colleagues in Hong Kong, like Anthony Wong– I don’t know if you know his work. I focused a lot on crafting my acting in the last six years, and I go around trying to find different perspectives from everyone, including somebody like Anthony, well-regarded actors in Hong Kong. They tell me sometimes when you’re acting– You know, there are a lot of bits to acting, right? Where you have to be in the character, you can’t get out of the character. To [Anthony], and I agree with him, you don’t really have to be stuck in the character. At the end of the day you’re acting. If you’re playing a killer, you’re really not going to pick up a knife and just kill somebody. For me, it’s just having that control, knowing that this is my job. I want to focus into the character. Once [snaps] the cameras are off, I try to become myself again. His acting method is less methodical and technical as an Introverted Thinking user, and more about empathizing and getting in the skins of his own characters. https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/donnie-yen-quotes https://www.flixist.com/interview-donnie-yen/
