It seems that in the martial arts drama industry every year, Jin Yong and Gu Long's ** are popular remakes, but since 2010, although there are many people who remake Jin Yong's works, there are very few who can really shoot well, and most of the dramas are unsatisfactory, and the actors are not only not famous, but also attracted ridicule from many netizens.
But even so, Jin Yong's ** is still an indelible monument in the martial arts industry, so there are constantly people trying to go forward one after another, for example, just recently, the well-known Hong Kong director Wang Jing announced that he would remake Jin Yong's martial arts works, this time filming the classic movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
In fact, many people know that Wang Jing remade the TV series "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" not long ago, but the reputation of this drama after the broadcast was not high, and the male and female protagonists who Wang Jing wanted to be popular did not achieve the expected effect and were regarded as bad movies by the public.
Interestingly, the movie "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" filmed by Wang Jing in the 90s can be said to be a classic in the remake industry over the ages, but it is such an ending after many years, which is embarrassing.
In fact, looking at the lineup of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", it can be said that the scale is grand, not only martial arts superstar Donnie Yen, but even Louis Koo was invited out of the mountain to play a supporting role for a group of newcomer actors, but unfortunately, the appearance of the protagonist of this movie really can't support the role, not to mention the Internet celebrity face, and the plot has changed in a mess, so in the end, this movie can only be released on the Internet.
Now that Wang Jing is in charge of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" again, everyone's expectations for him are not high, and most people think that Wang Jing is most likely to change the soup this time, and the film is still a bad movie.
However, judging from the current cast, Wang Jing is indeed as unique as ever in casting, for example, the actor who plays the undefeated East is mainland artist Zhang Yuqi.
Dongfang Undefeated is one of the absolute protagonists in Jin Yong's entire **, especially after film and television shooting, Lin Qingxia's Dongfang Undefeated has become an unsurpassable classic, for many years, countless people have tried to imitate this role, and some people have become popular because of this, especially for Zhang Yuqi, the pressure to take over this role is not ordinary.
However, many netizens feel that Zhang Yuqi's personality and appearance are indeed very suitable for playing the role of Dongfang Undefeated, and if she can switch between the two personalities, she may really be able to surpass Lin Qingxia.
But except for Zhang Yuqi, looking at the lineup of the whole movie, most of them are mainly newcomers, so the highlight of this work depends on Zhang Yuqi's performance.
For example, as the leading actor Ling Hu Chong, Wang Jing chose actor Huang Xiyan, this is an artist who has just debuted and is well-known in online movies, but it is still unknown whether he can be qualified for the role of Ling Hu Chong.
Compared with Ling Hu Chong, the actor of Ying Ying, another female director in this drama, will be played by Xuan Lu, a post-90s actor.
As a Hua Dan-level actor, although Xuan Lu has played many roles, her acting skills have been questioned by many people, and it is not difficult to see from Xuan Lu's costume photos that her facial features and appearance are still very good, however, compared with the actors who played Ren Yingying in previous generations, it is still much worse, and I can only hope to sharpen my acting skills.
In fact, in the eyes of many audiences, most of the movies shot by Wang Jing today are bad movies, and many people don't understand why Wang Jing insists on shooting, but as Wang Jing said, if he doesn't shoot, many actors will be hungry, especially for the declining Hong Kong film industry, Wang Jing's movies have indeed fed a large number of artists.
But after all, it can't be sustained for a long time by making bad movies, and if Wang Jing wants to change the status quo of the film industry, he must come up with a few passable works.
I wonder if you are looking forward to this new movie?
