As of Feb 20, Wang Kai has started filming for his next drama Da Jiang Da He 大江大河 where he reunites with the production team that casted him in his breakout role for Nirvana in Fire. A big part of me wishes that this were a historical drama instead but it counts as a period piece as it goes back to the late 1970’s until the early 1990’s to detail a revolutionary era in the history of China. Directors Kong Sheng, Huang Wei and Producer Hou Hongliang were also present at the opening ceremonies along with actress Tong Yao whose profile reminds me of Zhang Ziyi. She will be playing the character Song Yunping though it’s unclear whether she’s the leading lady or a supporting role (it seems more likely that it’s the latter).
