“Something About Us” Teaser Poster
Hong Kong superstar Andy Lau (Shock Wave 2, Walk on Fire) is taking a page out of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s 2008 critically-acclaimed oddity JCVD, where Van Damme – sorta as himself – plays a fallen action star whose career is headed nowhere, only to find himself in the middle of a post office heist.
Andy Lau’s upcoming film, titled Something About Us, is directed by Ning Hao (My People, My Homeland). Contrary to the aforementioned JCVD, this one appears to be a little more light-hearted, as it centers on Andy Lau portraying a fading Hong Kong movie star, who decides to shoot a rural comedy in the deep Mainland countryside (via AFS).
Of course, in real life, Andy Lau’s star power is far from fading, as he has a list of upcoming, high-profile projects in the works, including the Jackie
Chan-directed The Diary, Felix Chong’s Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong, The Wandering Earth 2, and Cold War III.
We’ll keep you updated as we learn more. For now, we leave you with the classic Trailer for Andy Lau’s 1990 Benny Chan-directed film, A Moment in Romance:
