Director Wong Kar Wai turned 54. He is currently working on the December release THE GRANDMASTERS (YUT DOI JUNG SI) and had to celebrate on the set. Zhang Ziyi posted the birthday celebration photo from the set.

THE GRANDMASTERS was a film that Wong Kar Wai prepared 13 years for and took almost 3 years to shoot on and off. Viewers who were anxious to see Tony Leung Chiu Wai worried that the film would never be released and joked that it was "missing for a generation". In March the film announced its mid December release, but the film is still in "a hurry to wrap up" production.
