Demon Catcher Zhong Kui 钟馗捉妖记 begins filming and William Yang Xuwen (LOCH) will play the titular mythological hero known for vanquishing ghosts and evil beings. He was most recently seen as Qing Long where he gave a charismatic performance in spite of being a supporting character in Legend of Chusen.
I actually cannot envision his clean cut image transforming into the brusque and hot-headed warrior Zhong Kui (lower right) though he supposedly plays a younger version whose story also touches upon a budding romance with Yang Rong (Legend of Flying Daggers).

Yes… I was wondering why he was casted for Condor Heroes at first but after seeing his charisma in Chusen, it seems to make sense.
