The 25 year-old will play an 1880's Chinese prostitute kidnapped from her asian homeland and brought to work in an American brothel. Daughters of Joy, a $15-million mini-series stars Robert Duvall (also serving as executive producer), Thomas Haden Church (Sideways), and Dwight Yoakam (Sling Blade). Cheng, who also had a bit part in Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson's Shanghai Noon, isn't getting all starry-eyed yet, but shows ambition:
"I don't have any illusions that ... I'm going to become a star after this. But this is a life experience I couldn't turn down. When this movie is done, I'll come up with a new five-year plan."

Robert Duvall has been to Alberta before to film the western Open Range with Kevin Costner.
Update: Daughters of Joy was the working title for what is now known as Broken Trail.
