Future Projects

I have been asked a few times what my next film will be after BLOOD BROTHERS. Recently, HAF has announced 25 projects that they will endorse this year. And one of them is DETOUR, a film I am working on.  

DETOUR actually was meant to be my first feature film. It was the first project I worked on with John Woo and Terence Chang’s Lion Rock Productions. We actually prepped the film for a year and was meant to be shot in Bangkok. Needless to say, the film did not push through and I went on to shoot BLOOD BROTHERS.  

Still, DETOUR was a project I believed in so we’ve reworked the scrīpt and changed the location. I think the material will be stronger in the end. Aside from this, I am also working on a love story which will be announced very soon.  

Here are some recent press releases:  

From HAF: 25 Film Projects selected for HAF 2008 (17 - 19 March 2008)

25 Exciting New Projects at HAF 2008 The Hong Kong - Asia Film Financing Forum (HAF) has announced its 2008 selection of 25 Asian film projects. The co-production market aims to bring together regional filmmakers and international financiers in its continuing effort to facilitate co-productions and co-ventures. The 2008 event will see returning veterans and emerging filmmakers from across Asia sharing the spotlight.

Now in its 6th edition, the pivotal co-production market for Asian films has always been a magnet to world-renowned, as well as fledgling, filmmakers. HAF 2008 features directors such as Nakata Hideo(Japan), the internationally acclaimed director of the Ring series, who also helmed the Hollywood remake of Ring 2; Park Chan-wook of Old Boy (Korea), winner of the Jury Grand Prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004; 2003 Silver Bear Award winner, Li Yang (Chinese Mainland), director of Blind Shaft and Blind Mountain; Cai Shangjun (Chinese Mainland), whose debut feature The Red Awn won the FIPRESCI Prize at the 2007 Pusan International Film Festival; and Brillante Mendoza (The Philippines), who garnered international attention with his Foster Child at Cannes, Directors' Fortnight, in 2007. From the host territory of Hong Kong come three of its new generation of auteurs, Pang Ho-cheung (Isabella, Exodus), Alexi Tan (Blood Brothers) and Carol Lai Miu-suet (Naraka 19, Floating Landscape). 

From Sina: 于每年香港影视博览会上举行的香港亚洲电影投资会(简称HAF)是亚洲导演的新片集中招商引资的机会,举办五年来,成功为近百部导演新作创造了拍摄契机,其中包括李杨(李杨吧)的《盲山()》(盲山吧)、张杨(张杨吧)的《落叶归根》(落叶归根吧)、宁浩(宁浩吧)的《银牌车手》、陆川(blog,陆川吧)的《南京!南京!》(南京!南京!吧)等。在近日公布的HAF2008年25个新片入围计划中,不仅有李杨、宁浩、彭浩翔(blog,彭浩翔吧)等年轻导演的新作,还体现出王家卫(王家卫吧)、吴宇森(吴宇森吧)、李安(李安吧)等大导演前两年相继提出的扶植新锐导演的计划。   

在今年的HAF入围计划中,可以看到宁浩在完成《银牌车手》后又在筹拍新片《七宗梦》。对于此次入围,宁浩表示:“不能忘记,在我还是一个新导演的时候,就得到了HAF的帮助,让我认识了刘德华()(听歌,刘德华吧),让我的《疯狂的石头》(blog,疯狂的石头吧)得以启动。”此外,内地导演李杨的《盲流》、蔡尚君的《漂流的年代》、香港导演彭浩翔的《公车》、韩国导演奉俊昊的《母亲》、易智言的《明星咖啡厅》均在列HAF这次的新片计划。HAF的总监王庆锵非常高兴地表示:“今年的25个计划包括了许多才华横溢的亚洲导演,如韩国的朴赞郁和奉俊昊、日本的中田秀夫、中国的宁浩等,看到他们不断涌现的创作力,我们真的感到鼓舞。”   在今年的HAF入围名单中,几位年轻导演的新片都出现了有分量的监制。去年推出《天堂口》(天堂口吧)的香港年轻导演陈奕利今年将继续在张家振的监制下筹拍《大塞车》。侯季然等台湾三位新导演联合执导的《上上》(暂名)将由李安的弟弟李岗担任监制。王家卫的泽东公司承担了英国年轻导演理查·乔布森的新片《血线》的联合投资工作,王家卫的老搭档彭绮华还将担任监制。早报记者 刘嘉琦
