Director Alan Mak Siu Fai recently has been promoting his film THE LOST BLADESMAN (GUAN WON CHEUNG) while planning his new film. Yesterday in an interview he revealed that he was planning a 50s spy film with Best Actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai as the lead. The story would start with him as a spy. This would be their first collaboration since CONFESSION OF PAIN (SEUNG SING) in 2006.
As for female lead, Mak Siu Fai would like to find a Best Actress to pair with Wai Jai but nothing has been confirmed. Other choices would not be a problem either because Wai Jai could work with anyone. Was he afraid that the subject would be too sensitive? He said, "No, the Mainland now can make anything." He said that the film would shoot on location in Shanghai. He worried about the RMB rise. With the Mainland rising salary, the production cost would be heavier.
