Yung appeared briefly in the 2011 film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo as Miriam Wu, a romantic interest of Lisbeth Salander, and followed this with roles as the ninja Jinx in 2013's G.I. Joe: Retaliation and Gods of Egypt (2016), as the goddess Hathor. In 2016 she also starred as Amelia Roussel in the action comedy The Hitman's Bodyguard alongside Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson.
