Hi ShizunofBL, can I ask if the cast of Thousand Autumns are already confirmed? Can you drop the names?? Thank…
Unfortunately, nothing has been confirmed, except that MangoTV is the network and Ho Leung Lau is the director. That's it. And those pieces of information could change. At any moment, they could drop this production, or it could go back to the microwave as they say. And at any moment, they can drop the confirmed cast and tell us the date along with a trailer! That's how unpredictable the industry is.
It is RUMORED that Liu Xue Yi is involved in this drama. His studios haven't denied the rumors yet. It is RUMORED that he could be Yan Wushi. But all this is speculation.
I'm hoping that they will release the confirmed cast list soon because they want to start filming over the fall/winter of this year.
Does anyone know more about the director of this drama, Ho Leung Lau? I looked into him, and he used to be a screenwriter turned director for movies. Thousand Autumns will be his first drama, possibly his first costume, Wuxia production! From glancing at his past movies, they seemed to be more action-based with deep messages. I think it could be interesting because he could approach this project with fresh eyes, and the martial arts/fight scenes of Thousand Autumns are extremely important. BUT I hope he is paired up with a producer or another director who is more experienced in working with dramas, especially more romantic costume pieces.
Does anyone have the link for season 1? Thank you..
Unfortunately, you're about a year too early. We don't even have a confirmed cast list for this drama or know when/if it's going to air. But if you're interested in the donghua, the link to season 1 is here on YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxOs22nkVmnIUjQwsPgdUQeyW8dPRTtDu.
Thank you for the update!! Did the mentioned if it will be in 2022? Because 2021 would be too much for my heart!:))
I assume it would be 2022! What would be great is to have the donghua's season 2 finish around this time next year. Then, have the drama start late spring/early summer 2022! It will be the year of Thousand Autumns! AND the writer (Meng Xi Shi) is going to release additional extras of the novel. But I think that would be too fast for the drama, though, they are supposed to start filming over fall/winter.
Wait what? A live Drama for thousand Autumns is this real?
So far, yes. MangoTV is doing this, and there are rumors flying about the cast. Very exciting! We still can't be victorious because anything can happen in C-dramaland, honestly. Until a show airs, it's uncertain if it will air. There are countless examples of this. Wishing Thousand Autumns good luck and some of the magic WOH had.
oh interesting. Now I keep seeing good comments on casting LXY as Yan Wushi despite he looks quite young for it…
We still don't know what exactly he's doing in the drama. I do think he's kinda young and inexperienced (this was his first male lead role in Qing Luo) to play such a complex character as Yan Wushi. I really wish the production team could go with someone older, but they can't please everyone. No matter who they choose, that person can't fit everyone's personal ideas of who YW should be. I'll be happy as long as a respect and appreciation for the source material is there.
Gosh, just watching the part @21:21 of QingLuo #8 and LXY immediately reminded me of Yan Wushi's flirtatous behavior!!!
Are you on episode 8? I can't find it on YouTube. Edit: Never mind, I found it on Youku. You need VIP to see the advanced episodes, but I still have VIP from WOH.
Also, please don't judge me, but I cringe whenever he's acting lovey-dovey with the female lead. I cringe whenever I see my BL leads with other people. It takes me a while to assimilate. Lol, this could be a good sign that I'm already acting like this with LXY.

I highly recommend that you read the novel. It's a beautiful story with interesting, unforgettable characters. You can look at this guide for Newbies if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/Thousand_Autumns/wiki/index/howtoreadthousandautumns
Good luck.
It's extras from Peerless where YWS and SQ appear! Lol, YWS took up cooking and was making a special soup of Shen Qiao...
