'That Demon Within' premieres in Hong Kong
Hong Kong actors Nick Cheung and Daniel Wu attended the premiere of their new cop thriller "That Demon Within" in Hong Kong yesterday.
In the film, Wu plays a police officer who accidentally saves the life of a notorious gang leader, who is played by Cheung.
Cheung's character eventually returns to a life of crime, and Wu's police officer vows to risk all to bring Cheung to justice.
This is the first time Wu and Cheung have collaborated on-screen. Wu said he enjoyed working with Cheung and he looks forward to working together on future projects:
"I am very happy to get the chance to work with Nick. I have made so many Hong Kong films, yet we haven't had the chance to work together. So when the director approached me (about this project), I was very happy and excited. I don't think we shared that many scenes together in this film, so I already asked the director to cast us in his next movie."
The film was directed by Hong Kong filmmaker Dante Lam, who won the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Director for his work on "Beast Stalker" in 2008.
Both Lam and Cheung have been nominated in the directing and acting categories at the upcoming Hong Kong Film Awards on April 13th.
"That Demon Within" is set to hit theaters in China on April 18th.
Nicolas Cage stars in small independent movie, 'Joe'
After taking some time from acting, Academy Award-winner Nicolas Cage has plunged back into film-work with his new dark drama, "Joe."
The movie is adapted from Larry Brown's 1991 novel of the same name, and is directed by David Gordon Green, whose previous works include "Pineapple Express," and "Prince Avalanche".
In the film, Cage's character Joe helps a teenage boy who is abused by his alcoholic father. An interesting fact is that the father is played by a man named Gary Poulter, who was actually homeless and living on the streets in Austin Texas when he was discovered by a casting director.
Cage says he made 'Joe,' because he felt he was in the right emotional frame of mind to enable him to relate to his character.
"'Joe' is a movie that has a lot of heart. When 'Joe' came in I said, 'Well this is what I am looking for because I don't think I am going to have to act too much. I think I am just going to feel this.' I think I had the emotional content to fill the dialogue in a way that's truthful."
"Joe," opens across theaters in the U.S. this Friday, April 11.
