So the big name in C-drama adaptations these past two years is write Qian Shan Cha Ke 千山茶客 who has had four big C-dramas aired or on deck adapted from her novels. There is The Double with Wu Jin Yan and Wang Xing Yue, and on deck is Legend of the Female General with Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei followed by Noble Lady with Chen Du Ling and Xin Yun Lai, and the most recently filmed was A Dream within a Dream with Li Yi Tong and Liu Yu Ning. Now her fifth C-drama adaptation based on her novel The Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage is being prepared and there is so much chatter about who will be cast. Setting aside impossible names being floated like Zhao Li Ying, Dilraba Dilmurat, and Chen Xiao (I know, ridic right?), the two sets of potential leads being discussed by insider insiders as actually getting contacted by the production during the casting process is Dylan Wang with Yang Chao Yue and more recently Cheng Yi and Zhao Lu Si. These two potential pairings frustrate me because unless it’s Dylan with Lu Si which I would love the other two are just not my jam and also really wrong for the roles. I love Qian Shan Cha Ke novels and this one is no different so PLEASE CAST WELL thanks.
