I’ve been through Louis Cha wuxia novel casting brouhahas before and when I was younger it did annoy me more that actors/actresses were cast that just looked/vibed nothing like the famous characters, the biggest complaint remains Michelle Chen as Xiaolongnu in the 2014 version of Return of the Condor Heroes.
