"Line Walker" is TVB's hit television drama wherein its movie version is now officially filming in Hong Kong. The movie is directed by Jazz Boon, also the "Line Walker's" producer, where Charmaine She returns as an undercover Ding Jeh, along with new roles portrayed by Francis Ng, Nick Cheung, and Louis Koo.
The film's shooting started with a press conference attended by its main cast and crew early this week. The film's director unveiled that aside from Hong Kong, it will also shoot in Brazil and Macau anytime in February. Most of the scenes in Brazil will include action sequences as shared by Louis. The actor is looking forward to traveling abroad, but he's not excited with the 30-hours flight. Meanwhile, Nick is more worried about losing his luggage, which he always does, he claims.
Nick and Louis's appearances in a TVB sequel movie created speculations that these stars will return to TVB dramas. Asked if they are interested to film a TVB drama once again, Nick says it will depend on Louis. The latter actor still owes TVB around 20 episodes, but says he will return with the right script at the right time.
Sources also report that both actors were offered a substantial talent fee for the film; but both actors refused to comment or elaborate. As what Louis says, this is just mere gossip.
But unlike Nick and Louis, Charmaine and Francis will not enjoy luxury travel to Brazil for their scenes. Both partners will portray cops and focus their story in Macau and Hong Kong. Francis says he doesn't mind missing out the fun as he is more excited on seeing Charmaine wear a bikini and thong.
Charmaine was declared to take part in the web drama sequel of Line Walker, which will be a co-production with Penguin Pictures in Mainland China. Latest developments are affirming that the actress dropped out due to her decision not to extend her TVB contract. However, Charmaine denies or confirms reports that she will take part in the sequel. She simply insists taking things at a time.
