Wong Kar Wai's THE GRANDMASTERS (YUT DOI JUNG SI), which has been in preparation for almost 8 years and in production for 2 years, yesterday was rumored to be coming to a production halt. Its lead actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai, who has focused on making THE GRANDMASTERS and not taken any other role, recently accepted a role in Derek Yee Tung Sing's new film GREAT MAGICIAN. He and the Lau Ching Wan played warlord would fight over Zhou Xun. Wai Jai would first play a magician.
THE GRANDMASTERS originally planned to be released for this year's National day. Thus its goal was to finish by May. Reportedly from the current progress it would have difficulty with its completion. Wong Kar Wai decided to halt the production for Leung Chiu Wai to make money first while he could explore new elements before consider when to resume production.
