From Stage to Screen: A Journey of Multi-Directional Development

Hailed as a "Hexagonal Warrior" for his all-around prowess, Tan Jianci has delivered eye-catching performances across multiple fields. In film and television, from the calm portraitist Shen Yi in "Under the Skin" to the impressive and stunning dual roles of Xiang Liu and Fangfeng Bei in "Lost You Forever," he has won widespread acclaim for his nuanced and powerful acting. In 2025, his roles in the film "I Miss You" and the TV series "Under the Skin 2" earned him dual nominations for Best Actor at the Macau International Film Festival's Golden Lotus Awards, making him the first actor ever to achieve simultaneous nominations in both film and television categories at the same ceremony.

Meanwhile, Tan Jianci has achieved remarkable success in music. His personal albums, such as "DREAMS" and "HUAN," showcase his depth and diversity as a creator. His single "Bad Monalisa" not only dominated major charts but also won "Annual Chinese Digital Single" at the 2025 TMEA Awards, where he himself was awarded "Annual Best All-Round Singer." At the end of 2025, the two lead singles, "PROOF" and "DEAD REFLEX," from his third album rapidly topped daily charts on multiple music platforms upon release, once again proving his powerful appeal in music.

Furthermore, Tan Jianci actively shines in variety shows and the fashion world. In 2025, he graced the covers of three major mainstream women's fashion magazines—"ELLE," "Harper's Bazaar," and "Marie Claire"—becoming the first male celebrity that year to achieve covers on all three of these top five publications. Notably, the sales for his "ELLE" New Year issue broke industry records, showcasing his strong commercial value and fashion influence.

Tan Jianci Wax Figure Limited-Time Tour: An Immersive Star-Studded Experience

Tan Jianci's wax figure now resides in the "Hong Kong Glamorous" zone. Dressed in a classic black suit, the figure's highly accurate facial features and meticulous details showcase masterful craftsmanship, earning it the affectionate nickname "God of Unfiltered Photos" from fans. Running from 30 January to 12 April 2026, this nearly three-month exhibition allows visitors not only to take close-up photos with the figure but also to engage with interactive installations in the zone. The charm of Tan Jianci's diverse talents across film, music, and fashion offers visitors a dreamy moment of being "in the frame with their idol" and embarking on a personalised star-studded journey.

Madame Tussauds Hong Kong warmly invites visitors to participate in the "Celebrate the New Year with Tan Jianci" engagement game.
