今年初已有媒体报道,中、韩、日将投资超过一点五亿元拍摄武侠巨制《墨子攻略》。昨据有关人士透露,该片导演已基本敲定为香港导演张之亮,主演锁定刘德华,内地导演黄建新将担任第一监制。该片有望在下半年正式投入拍摄。

Andy Lau's new film project

A mega-budget martial arts epic film "Mo Zi Raider " has picked Andy Lou, one of Hong Kong hottest stars, to be the leading actor .

The film, with a 150 million yuan (Nearly 20 million US dollars) budget, is believed to be the biggest investment this year in China. It is a joint project between China, South Korea and Japan.

The film is designed to depict the life of ancient celebrated scholar Mo Zi who lived in the Warring States Period (475 BC - 221 BC). It intends to shed lights on Mo Zi's theory of "only defend but no attack" through endless wars and conflicts during that period.

Hong Kong director Zhang Ziliang, who has long been interested in traditional culture, will take the charge of this mega-budge film.

He has just completed the high-profile martial-arts TV drama "Seven Swords".

The film is expected to begin shooting later this year.
