A special entertainment update as there were a lot of casting news (or rumors of). 😀
First 🙂 centdevotee has recreated our C-Actors and C-Actresses from cdramadevotee! However, we decided to make a poll instead of putting pictures. We would be really happy if you guys participate (C-Actresses and C-Actors page link here).
Tada! Wallace Huo will play the emperor Qian Long that will make his harem suffer (especially Zhou Xun) in upcoming high budget, highly mediatised Ru Yi Legend. It is also reported that Jian Jinfu will play the son of Wallace, the always handsome 5th Prince, aka Yong Qi. Did this drama just turn into an idol drama? =_=
I love this extra picture of Wallace Huo, acting as the dad of Ruby Lin‘s Ziwei hehe
Here comes another drama, called 不负如来不负卿. It is about a girl time traveling to the past and meeting a monk. Could be fun (if they can pass the SARFT restrictions of course) ^^
Rise of a Phoenix casts Liu Shishi and Chen Kun as leads! They are also trying to hire Yang Yang, Yuan Hong and Chen Xiao. What a line-up if it does happen *_*
Drama August is Not Over or Ba Yue Weiyang originally announced Rain and Victoria as leads, but it seems like they will be changing the line-up a bit. More information soon.
Rumoured lead for Legend of Fuyao are Li Bingbing or Tang Yan
Korean actress Yoon Eunhye and Chinese actor Du Chun will start filming a Ming Dynasty drama in July.
