It’s official. Every moody actor on the planet simply must star opposite Ella. It’s better than getting therapy. The woman famously turned Taiwan’s surliest hot shot Jerry Yan into a smiling, laughing, giddy man-boy on the set of Down With Love. Now she’s turned serious and sensitive Vic Zhou into a complete clown. I love it. Ella and Zai Zai … Continue reading →
Not only is Zai Zai looking more and more like Tony Leung, he’s also healthier and happier than I have seen him in years. Seeing Vic Zhou along with Yang Mi and Ella hitting the Chinese variety show circuit to promote their movie Perfect Two (minus Xiao Xiao Bin who is back in Taiwan), I suddenly discovered a ZaiMi craving … Continue reading →
Get this. Vic Zhou’s upcoming movie Perfect Two with Ella will be going almost head-to-head with Mark Chao’s Black & White: Dawn of the First Assault. Is there some sort of karma god in this world that loves to mind frak everyone, because this can’t be a coincidence (not sure which side plotted it). B&W premieres one week before Perfect … Continue reading →
I’m sure everyone’s like “didn’t you just post about this a few days ago?” The answer is no, because a few days ago Vic Zhou was not wearing all black and Xiao Xiao Bin was missing his bright red boy cape. So those two spot-the-difference moments are enough for me to post another round of pictures of Zai Zai and … Continue reading →
What a difference a shave and a few pounds make. Vic Zhou is back in Taiwan after wrapping his period epic movie Saving General Yang, arriving just in time to attend the Golden Horse Awards with Ella to start promotions for their new movie Perfect Two (Chinese title Destiny’s Pair). It’s so good to see my Zai Zai so cheerful … Continue reading →
Taiwan’s most prestigious awards show came and went, and thankfully the results caused no sputtering outrage and mud flinging the way the Golden Bells did last month. Last night’s Golden Horse Awards was a rather muted affair, with some viewers not terribly impressed with the star quality of the nominees and attendees compared to other years. The biggest nomination winner … Continue reading →
Okay, if that picture above didn’t cause you to melt a little inside, you might be the distant cousin of a rock. The upcoming remake of Destiny’s Pair starring Vic Zhou, Xiao Xiao Bin, Ella, and Yang Mi is confirmed to premiere in February 2012. The production released a teaser MV last month that is part sweet-part angst. If you … Continue reading →
Looks like Director Ronny Yu’s mega-budget period war movie Saving General Yang is potentially looking for an American distributor. The first official still from the movie, starring among others Adam Cheng, Ekin Cheng, Wu Zun, Vic Zhou, and Raymond Lam, showed up at a distributor exhibition in Los Angeles over the weekend. This is a full and direct look at … Continue reading →
The cast of the upcoming mega-period war movie Saving General Yang has been in the outskirts of Beijing filming for the past month or so, with very little leaking from the set. I really must congratulate Wu Zun (who plays Sixth Brother) on his 32nd birthday, which feels like he has been celebrating for the better part of the entire … Continue reading →
Vic Zhou is currently in Beijing filming the period movie Saving General Yang, but his completed modern C-movie Sleepless Fashion (formerly known as Live with Fashion) is about to premiere later this month. Co-starring Vivian Hsu and Alan Tam, the movie is about an idealistic fashion magazine editor played by Zai Zai who incurs the wrath of his boss played by Alan … Continue reading →
Vic Zhou is currently in Beijing filming the period movie Saving General Yang, while his just completed remake of the classic Taiwanese movie Destiny’s Pair is starting its promotions by releasing official stills and holding a media day for the stars to meet the press. Starring Zai Zai and Ella, this movie will allow us to decide which F4 guy … Continue reading →
After holding a dedication ceremony at the beginning of August in Kaifeng (the capital of China during the Song dynasty), the production of Saving General Yang finally got a non-gimpy leading man (Ekin Cheng stepping in for the injured Louis Koo) and can continue on its merry way to bring Koala her man-candy-epic movie. The production held a press conference … Continue reading →
A filming commencement ceremony was held last week in Kaifeng (the old capital of the Song Dynasty) for the upcoming blockbuster martial arts historical movie Saving General Yang (忠烈楊家將). Present for the media event was the actors playing five of the seven Yang brothers: Yu Buo (Second Brother), Vic Zhou (Third Brother), Raymond Lam (Fifth Brother), Wu Zun (Sixth Brother), … Continue reading →
