“Pre-press conferences” (press con of movies before they’re even shot) are
often uninteresting, because there is gererally not much to say, especially for
the actors (remember “
The Storm Riders II
風雲2” in 2008). But for 1st press conference of “
Bodyguards
and Assassins 十月围城” (ex-“Dark October”) at the
Hong Kong Filmart 2009, it was not the case. During
almost one hour,
Manfred Wong interviewed producer
Peter Chan
陳可辛,
director
Teddy Chen
陳德森, and one - big - part of the amazing cast of the movie (Here we go:
Donnie
Yen 甄子丹 Simon Yam 任達華, Tony Leung Kar-fai 梁家輝, Nicholas Tse 謝霆鋒, Fan Bing-bing 范冰冰, Eric Tsang 曾志偉,
Leon Lai 黎明,
Hu Jun 胡軍, and Wang Po-chieh 王柏傑)about
this very exiting project. All the press con was conducted in Mandarin, and
hearphones for the simultaneous English translation were provided. Perfect! Enjoy
the (120) screencaps and the promo trailers below. More stuff coming soon...
