There’s another long-awaited novel to movie adaptation officially in the works that’ll make fans of the source novel very happy. Readers of the of fantasy period C-novel Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms (三生三世，十里桃花) will finally see their beloved story moved to the screens, and in big screen format as a movie rather than the expected small screen drama route. The novel is by writer Tang Qi Gong Zi (pen name means Tang Dynasty 7th Gentleman) and is described as an epic fantasy love spanning multiple lifetimes and whatnot.
Truth be told I couldn’t finish the novel, his writing style is too florid for me, but this is definitely one of the more popular C-novels out there still waiting for an official screen version. The production held a commencement press conference to kick things off, revealing that casting is still underway for the main cast but the leading lady has been confirmed to be popular C-actress Crystal Liu, who basically looks like every Chinese person’s ideal image of a period beauty. Over the years the two sets of previous onscreen pairings that have been bandied about the most for the role of male lead Ye Hua and female lead Bai Cian have been Hu Ge–Crystal Liu or Wallace Huo–Tang Yan so Crystal’s casting is halfway to fandom ideal already.
Word on the street has it that Feng Shao Feng may be the male lead to play Ye Hua. If it pans out then that would reunite Crystal and Feng Shao Feng after they played the star-crossed OTP of Yu Ji and Xiang Yu in the movie White Vengeance.
I prefer Wallace Huo and Crystal Liu pairing. These two = a BIG YES for me. I’m kind of tired of seeing Tan Yang and Hu Ge.
A big YES to Wallace Huo and Yifei, but I’m not tired of seeing Hu Ge, Lang Ya Bang is still flying high in my heart even though I’ve rewatched it 2 times already 😀
@Lilith I have been watching Hu Ge new dramas (Goodtimes, The Disguiser, and Lang Ya Bang) so I’m kind of tired of seeing him lol and I prefer some new pairings
Plus, Hu Ge in long hair isn’t appealing as Wallace in long hair Hohohoho
Love Hu Ge & Crystal Liu!!! Fighting!!
I thought rumor was Eddie Peng….
hmm as much as I like Ye Hua and Bai Qian couple, I don’t like the story line….
I thought it was confirmed to be Eddie. I was all for the paring after I heard it.
I didnt finish the novel either, too slow moving for my taste. I really liked the girl but didn’t really like the guy. I liked the 2nd lead more.
There is also suppose to be a drama version too. Hopefully Liu Yi Fei will also that that on, chances are slim, but I would really like to see her on the small screen again.
She is hawt. *Boner*
I love this novel,can’t wait to see who the main lead is and also the little dough.I love that kid
I finished this novel but couldn’t finish The Pillow Book because they were in that dream FOREVER
Finally, I haven been waiting for the movie adaption ever since I finished the novel. I thunk Crystal suits Bai Qian well, now I rally need Hu Ge for Ye Hua. When I read the novel I have always pictured him as Ye Hua.
Hu ge Hu ge Hu ge!!!
Me too but as much as I want Hu Ge as YeHua and a reunion, HG is not famous in movies, they are going to cast a bigger name actor, well known in movies… so this can make it big in threatre..
Hu Ge and Crystal Liu is my first choice.
News release!! Yang Yang is the male lead. He’s so pretty o__o like I never read the novel but I guess he’ll fit the godly prince image.
