[2023.10.07] TABLE FOR SIX 2 ISSUES WEDDING INVITATION FOR NEXT YEAR RELEASE






The film TABLE FOR SIX opened last year in September for the Mid Autumn Festival. During the pandemic the cast wore masks for audience appreciation events, viewers also had to wear masks to go to the movies. In the end it made over HK$ 77 million. Director Sunny Chan Wing Sun would follow up with TABLE FOR SIX 2. Yesterday Edko Films on social media announced TABLE FOR SIX 2's release next year with a wedding invitation. On it were new names to the family, but not the Chan family (Dayo Wong Tze Wa, Louis Cheung Kai Chung, Peter Chan Cham Man)'s previous cast actor names. Online debates arose, worrying that the previous cast would not get to stay; actually the wedding invitation hid secrets. When asked to confirm whether the original cast would take part, director Chan Wing Sung continued to keep the secret. "Thank you for your support!" He said that the film company would announce the TABLE FOR SIX 2 details.

On the wedding invitation that Edko Films released was "A joyous occasion for the Chan family, an even more joyous dinner movie is coming". "On 2024 AD director Chaan Wing Sun, the Chan family TABLE FOR SIX 2 wedding would take place at all Hong Kong cinemas. Popcorn and sodas would be served. All Hong Kong viewers are welcome." The groom's family included "Great Uncle" Wu Fung, "Uncle Three" Peter Lai Pei Tat, "Uncle Six" Gardner Tse Kwan Ho, "Uncle Seven" Ram Chiang Chi Kwong, "Cousin" Dee Ho Kai Wa, "Cousin" Tony Wu Tsz Tung; the bride' family included "Granny" Helena Law Lan, "Pig Ma" Michelle Yim (Mai Suet); the wedding guest performer was Jeffrey Ngai Chun Sun, wedding guests included Fish Liew Chi Yu, Jennifer Yu Heung Ying, Renci Yeung Sze Wing, Ling Man Lung and Locker Lam Ka Hei.

Director Chan Wing Sun shared the post. "Thank you everyone! See you next year! A joyous occasion for the Chan family, and an even more joyous dinner for TABLE FOR SIX 2 (FAN HEI GUNG SUM 2)!" Many online saw the "wedding invitation" and were baffled, because other than Fish Liew Chi Yu, the rest of the list were all new names. Some could not wait to write, "Everyone has changed......big brother, second brother and third brother are all gone." Some were upset, saying that a different story should change the title and needed not use TABLE FOR SIX 2. Some said that "the dinner guests were all different" and also declared, "I want Wong Tze Wa!"

Some also mentioned that the wedding invitation had "the Chan Family TABLE FOR SIX 2 wedding", believing that the Chan Brothers (Dayo Wong Tze Wa, Louis Cheung Kai Chung and Peter Chan Cham Man) would not escape. The wedding invitation was the newly added cast member list, making the movie even more cheerful. In particular was Michelle Yim (Mai Suet)'s bride family "Pig Ma" role, conceivably she in the film would play Ivana Wong Yuen Chi (Piggy)'s Mama. This wedding ceremony would be Chan Cham Man and Wong Yuen Chi's wedding.

The newly added actors were also pleasantly surprises. Some online saw "Uncle Six" Gardner Tse Kwan Ho and looked forward to it. Some also pointed out that A GUILTY CONSCIENCE (DUK SIT DAI JONG) actors have also switched to TABLE 2, aside Tse Kwan Ho, Dee Ho Kai Wa, Jennifer Yu Heung Ying, Renci Yeung Sze Wing and Fish Liew Chi Yu who played Wong Tze Wa's mama. Some joked, "Chai Siu Ma manifests in spirit!" Because nothing was clearly written about whether TABLE FOR SIX's 6 original stars would appear, whether Wong Tze Wa, Lin Minchen, Cheung Kai Chung and Stephy Tang Lai Yan would take place remained unanswered.
