I really feel bad for everyone who have worked hard for this drama. I have been waiting for this since last year…
I suspect they already finished the filming and in post production stage. In this case, it is hard to retake. Mostly after filming the talents will leave immediately and jump to filming another project.
It's too difficult to know as of now, but I think Deng Lun will not accept this as he's busy now filming Night…
Yeah, A lister actress like YZ must be fully booked for one or two years ahead. And preparing for a drama is not like preparing a food. It needs long process.
This will either get shelved altogether or reshoot everything all over again, which would cost a lot. It's a logistic…
If I were a producer...I will leave it as it is... won't released it forever. Unless the china govt. allow problematic talents appear in motion pictures. The main problem is the ML. and he was like in a whole scenes altogether. Changing the ML counted as a new brand project. Too costly.
Too bad it may never get out from the shelf. China showbiz in turbulence now. it affected the talents mostly with foreign citizenship. CL is a US citizen.
I think they can still sell it in streaming platform that non-china based. But...will they buy it though? China costume drama is far more expensive than Korean sageuk.
A lead actor that never should've been an actor since he has a no kiss on screen policy (a wife & child is no…
Actually I don't mind 'no real kiss policy' or 'no kiss on screen' . It has been a practice in several countries. Doesn't really affect the plot. I am amazed that in C Dramaland Allen Ren has such position to bargain. He is a real deal now. I am just thinking the actresses out there that often has no power to avoid unnecessary scenes or forced to do unpleasant scenes (like steamy kiss, bed scenes etc). What was written on the scripts sometimes would be different when filming. Dilireba is undoubtedly a hard worker actress. She don't mind filming in harsh condition till get illness. But...I read somewhere when filming spin off of Eternal Love, Dilraba is offered to do an intimate scene / bed scene, which was she refused, while her opposite ML, agreed and even asked her to do it. Even though Dilraba has good relationship IRL with her ML, she still insisted not to do an intimate bed scene. Perhaps she felt really uncomfortable at that time. For A lister like Dilraba, it's easy for her to choose what suitable for her. What about less popular actresses out there...
don't wanna see Liang Jie in a supporting role in a Steven Zhang drama....
I guess the drama was produced long time ago when Liang Jie wasn't quite famous. I followed LiangJie works. Since the successful Eternal Love, she has been starring in many dramas as main lead, or at least has important role as supporting chara. There a few drama of her as supporting chara., like I said, must be filming in her early career. I think now her agency will pick only good projects for her. There are practices in C Drama Industry that every movies and drama that had been filming won't get released immediately after postproduction. There are many factors. It can take months or years to get released. The worst case, the movie or drama will never have a chance to get released at all. But don't worry, the casts and crews usually had been paid already.
A must watch movie. I watched it several times. Still be my fav. survival movie. I know there are tons movie about survival, student game survival, but this one is a top notch. Better than the sequel. I guess it is due to its the late filmmaker director's touch. The movie left an impression about friendship, human relationship and how precious is life. Not something you can forget in a day.
