First Character Posters of Movie Version of Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms

The first character posters are out for the C-movie adaption of popular romance novel Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms. The C-movie has the English title Once Upon a Time while the C-drama which aired early this year had the English title Eternal Love, which makes it easier to distinguish but I prefer to use the common original Chinese literal translation because it’s always been so beautiful to me. The C-drama version is my favorite drama of 2017 so far, the only time a fantasy (Xian Xia) period drama has worked for me, and with such quiet and confident world and romance building narrative and directed with masterful restraint and visual beauty.

C-drama leads Yang Mi and Mark Chao were incredible in essaying their roles, especially Yang Mi who is back to her early days fine form from back in the Return of the Condor Heroes era in 2006. My love for the drama doesn’t pose any conflict with anticipation and interest in the C-movie starring Crystal Liu and Yang Yang, and judging from the first character stills using a cool blue, rather than peach colored background in the drama. I think the movie leads look fantastic as well so check it out if you’re also interested.

  • Sigh... I think the movie's posters pale in comparison to the drama's. And most of the characters' outfits are horrendous, especially Zhe Yan's. The only outfits I like out of those are A-Li, Ji Cang, and maybe Su Jin。

    • I think the costumes are gorgeous and looks much more ornate and expensive than the drama costumes...Some of the costumes looks cheaply made in the drama as well as some of the sets.

      I still love the drama despite its flaws though. This is ine drama where the acting was great by all involved. It really takes me back to my childhood when the TVB Ancient series were awesome and riveting to watch and couldn't wait tonsee the next episode. I am glad they brought that back in a Mainland drama, of course with a Hong Kong Director which helped a lot.

      • Yes, the movie outfits look more expensive but they look kind of exaggerated to me, more like those MMORPG characters. The drama outfits are simpler and fit my perception of how chinese gods and goddesses would look like. But I'm still looking forward to the movie though, the last time I've watched LYF in a movie is in The Four 2.

        I miss TVB ancient dramas too, oh by the way, have you heard about the upcoming China remake of A Step into the Past? The original HK version where Louis Koo time-travelled to the Qin Dynasty? I'm kind of looking forward to this remake as I really loved the original version back then.

  • I prefer Love 020 drama than movie. Drama has move time to develop the story than movie, movie normally going so fast.

    This drama did so well, turn Mark Chao to superstar. I believe the movie will do well to with that star power of yang yang and Crystal Liu.

  • About to complete Eternal Love and completely in love with the drama. Now I can hop onto the movie to relieve the gorgeous heartbreak again when it releases.

    Lots of pretty people in the movie.Look at adorable Riceball/A-li.Aww. Crystal Liu for some reason has always been a miss for me acting wise but I'll keep a open mind when I watch the movie. Xhan Nu and Zye Yan's costume are throwing me off a bit though. Such shocking blue and that dead blue bird on his head isn't helping either....he almost looks comical. Haha.

    Also is Bia Qian/Susu holding a peach wine bottle? Lol.Girl after my own heart. I thought it would be her Jade fan or a sword.

  • They just released the trailer and its looks pretty good so far, its very pretty and angsty LOL The movie has a different vibe to the drama imo.

  • Liu YiFei have ups and down in recent year but she never fail to deliver in wuxia setting. From The Story of a Noble family, Chinese paladin to A Chinese Ghost Story, she certainly have a distinct aura that make her good in wuxia genre. A little bit like Lee Jun Ki.

  • I love old chinese dramas and recent ones were bit off for me. Eternal love was so good i followed raw episodes. i will download all episodes and keep for later reruns.

  • Oh no will it be like love 020 love the drama , not so with the movie, i hope it will be like sunshine love the drama love tge movie more

  • I watched "Eternal Love" after reading the original Chinese novel. I have to say that the drama is a perfect adaptation of the novel. Although some details were changed, everything played out how I pictured it. The visuals were stunning, the acting was on point, and the soundtrack was great. I also really appreciate that the writers decided to tell the events in chronological order, which makes it a lot easier to get the timeline straight, rather than using a bunch of flashbacks like the novel.

    I'm not sure how the movie is going to be since there is a lot of plot to deal with, but it could work by focusing just on the main characters. I think Yang Yang actually fits the image of Mo Yan / Ye Hua more than Mark Chao since he fits the description of a 小白脸 more (not saying that he is one). But Zhe Yan's costume... I get that Zhe Yan is a phoenix, but I can't help but laugh at the poster.
