Early life
Family background and birth
Jonathan Cheung Wing-hong was born on 26 December 1981 in Hong Kong, to a family originating from Zhongshan, Guangdong.[1][10] He grew up in Choi Wan Estate, a public housing estate in Wong Tai Sin District.[11] Cheung's family was marked by frequent parental quarrels during his early childhood.[11] His parents divorced when he was four years old, after which he chose to live with his father and paternal grandmother rather than his mother, resulting in a complete loss of contact with her since then, lasting over 40 years as of 2025.[11] As an only child, Cheung was primarily raised by his grandmother following the separation, while his father later remarried and relocated to Mainland China.[11]Childhood and parental separation
Jonathan Cheung was born on 26 December 1981 in Hong Kong and grew up in Choi Wan Estate, where he lived from infancy. As a young child, he frequently witnessed his parents' quarrels, often during family meals held downstairs in the estate, which marked a turbulent early home environment.[12] At the age of four, Cheung's parents divorced. His mother asked him directly whether he wanted to live with her or his father, and he chose his father primarily to stay close to his grandmother, who had been a constant caregiver since his birth. This decision resulted in Cheung losing all contact with his mother, a separation that has lasted over 40 years as of 2025.[12][11] Following the divorce, Cheung continued living with his father and grandmother in Hong Kong. However, his father later remarried and relocated to Mainland China, leaving Cheung in the care of his grandmother, who raised him through his formative years until he established his own family as an adult.[12][11]Career
Early acting roles (2001–2005)
Jonathan Cheung entered the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the early 2000s, debuting on screen in 2003 after training and minor opportunities that marked the start of his professional acting career. His initial foray was into film, where he secured supporting and lead roles in a series of urban dramas and thrillers, reflecting the vibrant independent cinema scene of the time. These early projects allowed him to collaborate with established directors and actors, building foundational experience in portraying nuanced, everyday characters amid Hong Kong's social undercurrents.[13][10] In 2003, Cheung appeared in four notable films, beginning with Infernal Affairs II, a prequel to the acclaimed crime saga, where he played Billy, a young triad member navigating loyalty and betrayal in the shadowy world of organized crime. Directed by Andrew Lau and Alan Mak, the film highlighted his ability to embody tense, morally ambiguous figures in high-stakes narratives. That same year, he took on the role of Zhang Long in Cat and Mouse, a suspenseful tale of pursuit and deception, and Ka Ho in The Park, a psychological thriller that explored isolation and hidden desires in urban parks, earning praise for its atmospheric tension. Additionally, Cheung landed a main role as Jim Kawada in the ensemble drama Give Them a Chance, a poignant story of underprivileged youth striving for redemption through basketball, which underscored themes of perseverance and community in Hong Kong's working-class districts.[13][2][14] Cheung's momentum continued into 2005 with a supporting turn as Anson in Fear of Intimacy, directed by Wai Ka-fai, where he depicted a young man grappling with emotional vulnerability and relational complexities in contemporary society. This role, alongside actors like Tony Leung Ka-fai, further demonstrated his range in intimate, character-driven stories that delved into personal insecurities. Though limited to cinema during this period, these performances laid the groundwork for his transition to television, establishing Cheung as a reliable talent in Hong Kong's competitive acting landscape.[13]TVB tenure and supporting roles (2006–2015)
In 2006, Cheung joined Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) on the recommendation of singer-actor Andy Lau, transitioning from earlier independent film work to a contract actor role where he primarily portrayed supporting and minor characters in the network's productions.[15] Throughout his initial years at TVB, Cheung appeared in guest capacities, such as a paparazzo in the award-winning family series Moonlight Resonance (2008), and took on supporting parts like the eunuch Bao Gong Gong in the historical palace intrigue drama Beyond the Realm of Conscience (2009), which highlighted his ability to embody nuanced secondary figures in ensemble casts.[10] By 2010, Cheung's roles expanded to more prominent supporting positions, including Chiu Ying Tat, a forensic team member, in the crime procedural Twilight Investigation, and Tai Dak Leung, a comedic sidekick, in the romantic series Can't Buy Me Love. He further demonstrated range in When Heaven Burns (2011) as Andy, a steadfast friend navigating themes of revenge and redemption, earning steady visibility amid TVB's competitive lineup.[10] Cheung's portrayal of the loyal warrior Fan Gan in the fantasy-historical series Three Kingdoms RPG (2012) marked a standout supporting performance, praised for infusing the character with fresh charisma and depth that elevated ensemble dynamics. Continuing this momentum, he played Fan Fat, a reformed gangster turned barista with strong comedic timing, in Coffee Cat Mama (2013–2014), and supporting roles like Roger Ho Chi-on in the youth romance Swipe Tap Love (2014) and Fate Fan in the suspense thriller Eye in the Sky (2015), reinforcing his reputation as a dependable TVB mainstay during this era.[16][17][10]Breakthrough roles and departure from TVB (2016–2025)
In 2016, Cheung achieved a breakthrough in his career with prominent supporting roles across multiple TVB dramas, showcasing improved versatility and emotional depth. He portrayed Kap San in the action series A Fist Within Four Walls, Po Yue in the supernatural drama House of Spirits, and Zoi Fung in the historical romance The Last Healer in Forbidden City. These performances marked a significant step up from his earlier supporting parts, earning him the Most Improved Male Artiste award at the 20th TVB Anniversary Awards.[18] He also won the Most Improved Actor award at the TVB Star Awards Malaysia that year, his first major recognition after a decade at the network.[9] Building on this momentum, Cheung continued with supporting roles like Dau Cheung in the 2017 family comedy The Tofu War. His profile rose further in 2021 with his first leading roles, including Yuen Yau Fan in the legal thriller Take Two and the antagonist Ngai Chi Lok, alias "Marco," in the crime drama Sinister Beings. As the main villain in Sinister Beings, Cheung delivered a compelling portrayal of a cunning criminal mastermind, contributing to the series' strong ratings and popularity.[10] This role solidified his reputation for intense antagonistic characters, leading to a sequel in 2024 where he reprised Ngai Chi Lok.[19] From 2022 onward, Cheung secured additional leading parts, including Fan Zhong Lung in the romantic comedy Your Highness and Ma Wai Hung in the legal drama Speakers of Law. These series highlighted his range in both comedic and dramatic genres, with Speakers of Law earning positive reviews for its ensemble cast and plot twists. In 2025, he appeared in a supporting role as Pang Kin Bong in The Queen of Castle, his final TVB project before departing the network.[10] On November 9, 2025, Cheung announced his exit from TVB after 19 years, citing gratitude for the opportunities that shaped his career, including mentorship from Andy Lau and Nick Cheung. He reflected on meeting his wife through the network and the personal growth it fostered, though he did not specify future plans. The departure surprised fans and industry peers, ending a tenure that began in 2006 via Lau's recommendation.[3]Personal life
Marriage to Angie Mak
Jonathan Cheung began dating Angie Mak, a former TVB actress and host, in 2008 while both were working at the television station.[20] The couple married in 2012 after four years of courtship, marking a significant milestone in Cheung's personal life amid his rising acting career.[20][21] Throughout their marriage, Cheung has credited Mak with positively transforming his personality and financial habits, noting that she helped him become more responsible after he had previously spent frivolously, including blowing through a HK$100,000 bonus.[22] Early in their relationship, the couple faced challenges, including a 2019 incident where, following a heated argument during a move exacerbated by a traffic jam, Mak temporarily left their home with their young daughter for four days, traveling to Taiwan; Cheung reconciled by reflecting on his actions and pampering her upon her return.[22] Despite such hurdles, their bond has strengthened over time, with Cheung describing Mak as his "one and only goddess" who provided him with a "happy, perfect family" in a 2025 reflection on his career.[3] As of 2025, Cheung and Mak continue to maintain a loving partnership, emphasizing open communication and mutual consideration as key to their enduring marriage; Mak has shared that they prioritize understanding each other's feelings to foster harmony.[23] The couple frequently travels together, adapting to each other's preferences, such as opting for warm destinations like Malaysia during Chinese New Year celebrations instead of Mak's earlier interest in ski trips.[24] Their relationship serves as a testament to resilience and growth, with Cheung expressing ongoing gratitude for meeting Mak after overcoming personal obstacles from his childhood.[25]Family and children
Jonathan Cheung and his wife, Angie Mak, have three children together. Their eldest child is a daughter named Makayla Cheung, born in May 2014, who is affectionately nicknamed "Little Bean."[20] Their second child is a son born in October 2017, nicknamed "Little Peanut."[26] In September 2021, the couple welcomed their third child, a son named Maka Cheung, nicknamed "Little Yolk," who was born weighing 7 pounds.[21] Cheung has shared glimpses of family life on social media through his wife's posts, highlighting their close-knit household, though he maintains privacy regarding detailed personal matters. In February 2025, Cheung traveled to Malaysia with Mak and their three children, marking a family outing that underscored their bond.[24]Filmography

Film
Jonathan Cheung began his film career in 2003 with multiple supporting roles in Hong Kong cinema, marking an early foray into feature films alongside his television work. His debut appearances included portraying Zhang Long, one of Judge Bao's officers, in the historical wuxia action-comedy Cat and Mouse, directed by Gordon Chan. That same year, he appeared as Jim Kawada in the charity anthology Give Them a Chance, a collection of short films addressing social issues, and as Ka Ho in The Park, a horror film about a haunted amusement park.[1] A pivotal role came in 2003 with Infernal Affairs II, the prequel to the acclaimed crime thriller series, where Cheung played Billy, a triad member entangled in undercover operations and gang warfare. This performance in the film, directed by Andrew Lau and Alan Mak, contributed to its status as a box-office success and critical favorite, grossing approximately HK$25 million and influencing international remakes like The Departed. His involvement in this high-profile production helped establish his presence in the industry, showcasing his ability to handle intense dramatic scenes amid ensemble casts featuring stars like Tony Leung and Anthony Wong.[5] Throughout the mid-2000s, Cheung continued with diverse supporting parts that highlighted his versatility across genres. In 2005, he portrayed Anson in Fear of Intimacy, a relationship drama delving into emotional barriers, followed by minor roles like an enka singer in the romantic comedy I'll Call You (2006). He took on the character Hong in Rain Dogs (2006), a gritty film about survival and loyalty in Hong Kong's underbelly, and Ken in the family-oriented My Mother Is a Belly Dancer (2006), blending humor with themes of generational conflict. By 2007, Cheung appeared as Kit in the horror-thriller Gong Tau (also known as Voodoo), investigating supernatural curses, and as Eric in Whispers and Moans, a poignant drama on sex work and personal struggles in nightlife settings. Additional credits that year included a policeman in Brothers, a crime story of familial bonds and revenge, underscoring his frequent casting in law enforcement or peripheral figures.[1] In the late 2000s and early 2010s, Cheung's film roles became sparser as he focused on television, but he maintained a presence with characters like Chu Hin in Besieged City (2008), a social drama depicting youth struggles in modern Hong Kong's Tin Shui Wai district, and an unnamed role in the thriller 3 Narrow Gates (2009). He resurfaced in 2011 as a neighbor in the ensemble comedy I Love Hong Kong, a nostalgic tribute to the city's culture that celebrated local life through interconnected stories. After a hiatus from major features, Cheung returned in 2023 with the action-thriller Bursting Point, directed by Jesse Johnson, where he played Roy, a supporting character in a narrative of underground fighting and personal redemption, co-starring international talent like Louis Koo and Scott Adkins. This role signified his continued relevance in contemporary Hong Kong cinema, emphasizing action-oriented performances.[1]Awards and nominations
