Not quite over yet
- In more My Blueberry Nights news, Lovehkfilm’s Sanjuro has a link to the trailer. Looks good to me, though I’m feeling Wong’s overuse of voiceover already.
- Looks like Chow Yun Fat might not be Battle of Red Cliff after all. Ming Pao reports that the role that Chow has supposedly been cast in actually went to another actor before Chow supposedly signed on. Additional excerpt as follows:
內地記者求證了製片方面的中影負責宣傳的翁先生,他說發哥目前正在美國,據他所知發哥臨走前確主動與《赤壁》劇組聯絡過,但該片有很多猛將角色會出現,所以若大家仍保持良好關係,未來發哥可能會客串其他角色也說不定。
Mainland reporters wanted to confirm with publicity’s Mr. Yong. He said that Chow is current in the States, and that Chow did contact the production before leaving. But since there are quite a few characters in the film, if relations continue to stay healthy, maybe Chow will take on other roles.
