Which actor played Dr. Henry Wu in the Jurassic Park film series?

The story behind the answer

B. D. Wong played Dr. Henry Wu in the Jurassic Park film series.

Wu is a geneticist who works for InGen and contributes to the creation of the franchise’s dinosaurs. He first appears briefly in Jurassic Park, where he is part of the scientific team responsible for the animals’ genetic construction.

The films expand Wu’s role in the later stories. In Jurassic World, he is a leading scientist involved in developing the genetically engineered Indominus rex. His work illustrates how the franchise’s central scientific premise moves from recreating extinct animals to designing new hybrids.

B. D. Wong returned in Jurassic World, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Jurassic World Dominion, and other franchise material. The actor’s name is written with initials and periods in standard credits; “BD Wong” is a common informal spelling, but B. D. Wong is the established credited form.
