> Hong Kong action star Sammo Hung has sparked online buzz following a rare public outing with his wife, former actress Joyce Godenzi, at the 2026 Hong Kong Film Awards on April 19.
> 
> Hung, 74, cut a polished figure in a suit paired with a bright floral tie, appearing energetic despite relying on a walking cane.

> Meanwhile, Godenzi, 60, who seldom appears in public, turned heads in a peach evening dress which complimented her slender physique.
> 
> Reports from Hong Kong media indicated that the couple – who married in 1995 – were in high spirits as they walked the red carpet and posed for photos.

> 
> In a past interview with Hong Kong media, the martial arts movie star credited his wife for helping him recover and maintain his health, saying: “My wife doesn’t allow me to eat much. I can eat fatty food but have to give up starch.”
