Directed by Chen Kaige and after the movie wrapped up in February, Mei Lanfang is in its final stages of production. A still photo of Leon as Mei Lanfang and Zhang Ziyi as Meng Xiaodong was officially revealed the other day. In the photo, Leon wore a pure white suit of quality material, and Zhang, with a mushroom hairstyle, wore the classic qipao. The two skillfully showed postures of Peking Opera onstage.
Mei is still in its last stages of production. It will be screened around the end of the year, but it has already attracted the attention of Japanese and Korean distributors. The other day, the movie company sold the rights at a high price to Japan's Kadokawa. Kadokawa said that the male and female leads are well-known in Japan. In addition to the film's quality, it certainly can attract the Japanese audience. It is to believe the scale of the release and promotions of the movie will surpass past Chinese movies.
