CF: Brigitte Lin Comes Out of Retirement for Zhang Yimou's New Film
With the budget of 100 million yuan, the film features a host of strong cast members including singer Hu Ling, pianist Lang Lang and comedian Guo Degang. But more surprisingly, Lin will play alongside the Hollywood megastar Angelina Jolie.
Other reports still call it a false rumour. Wanda Pictures also denies it. It is noted that Brigitte Lin, Angelina Jolie and Lang Lang's paychecks combined alone would blow the the budget. (Sina), 2

I guess I shouldn't hold my breath just yet about Brigitte's comeback. In the meantime, I'll get excited about seeing a buck-toothed Christy Chung!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I saw at Cfensi that Starry Starry Night opened in New York and Seattle earlier this month. Have you heard anything about a wider release? I'm dying to see it on the big screen.
Brigitte Lin shouldn't be teasing us like that. :D
ReplyDeleteHave you heard anything about a wider release? I'm dying to see it on the big screen.
I see nothing on China Lion's site/Twitter/FB beyond NYC/Seattle. Curretnly plugging GF*BF, with Guei Lun-Mei, in August. Vulgaria is coming, too, I've read.
I wonder what role, after all these years, would really tempt/get Brigitte Lin to come out of retirement...
ReplyDeleteAnd agree dleelee, Brigitte shouldn't be teasing us like this! ;S
And isn't Painted Skin 2 also coming in August? I probably shouldn't be, but I'm eager to see it after watching the trailer.

ReplyDeleteThough I haven't seen either, I thought Maggie Cheung's cameo in Hot Summer Days and goddess in Ten Thousand Waves were nice choices. Maybe Brigitte could appear in a micro film first to reignite her chops? Tsui Hark, are you listening?

Mmmm, for me it'd be more out of obligation. These big budget epic films seem sure to disappoint. I'm more tempted by second-tier low-brow titles like Good-for-Nothing Hero(e)s, BMW Rhapsody, Million Dollar Croc, and Meet the In-Laws. :D
