TVB announces sequel for Ghetto Justice

Kevin Cheng, Myolie Wu and Sharon Chan attended the promotional event for TVB series, Ghetto Justice, recently. They celebrated the high ratings achieved by the series.

A few days ago, the top news in HK entertainment was Myolie's rumoured boyfriend, Bosco Wong was secretly photographed in his house in his birthday suit. Kevin Cheng expressed that the government should take this incident seriously and address this issue.

TVB has made the decision to block the two publications (Sudden weekly & FACE) from all their events and prohibit them from interviewing any TVB artistes for two months. Kevin says that his is just a temporary measure and is not addressing the matter at its core. After two months, then everything will be back to what it was before.

Myolie's mood has notably improved, appearing rather relaxed at the event. Myolie expressed that the unhappy events are over and she does not wish to talk about the issue anymore. Having been in the industry for some time now, Myolie says she has an understanding of the "media-artiste relationship".

When asked about Bosco's mood, Myolie shares, "some magazines' work as the media turns into peeping tom, using their cameras to go violate a person's privacy and think that as long as they are under the 'freedom of news' hat that they can just do anything. There is also a limit in making news, using the camera to violate a person's privacy is way over."

Good news for fans of LAW BA
Ghetto Justice will have a sequel and filming will begin as early as October. The sequel will feature the original [GJ] cast and it will also revolves around the legal genre. As to whether it is a direct or indirect sequel, this is still unclear. Also, the producer, Tong Kei Ming, has resigned as such the sequel will be produced by Chan Wai Koon. Producer Tong shares that he has plans to film a movie version of Ghetto Justice but it all depends on Kevin and Myolie's availability.

Kevin Cheng and Myolie Wu: A bickering pair of lovers

Kevin Cheng and Myolie Wu portray a bickering couple in TVB's latest series Ghetto Justice. This is not the first collaboration for this duo, it is actually their third. And as the saying goes - third time's the charm! Their third collaboration bears excellent fruit with amazing chemistry, much to the audiences' delight.

Myolie explains, "previously, we collaborated in Strictly Come Dancing 2 and Burning Flame 3. Perhaps in [BF3], our roles were more restrain and there isn't much noise when we come together! This time, Kevin's role is very playful, breaking through that handsome look he had in the past. He's laid back and ghetto, in fact he is just being himself!"

Myolie is full of praise for her wonderful co-star, calling Kevin the "good-deal King"! "Actually there isn't just Moses Chan as the good deal in TVB, Kevin is also a good one! I do hope to have some rumors with him!" jokes Myolie.

Kevin says the good ratings achieved boosts his confidence level. "I am not shooting series for awards, good public response wins over everything!" Kevin explains. Myolie shares Kevin's thought and adds, "the viewers' taste is hard to guess, but we had a great time shooting this series. Perhaps, the viewers enjoy watching us bicker!"

Kevin also complimented Myolie, saying that she is a good girl and has tremendous talent. ""I am just a normal single man, still haven't found a girlfriend. Although Myolie is a good girl, but unfortunately she is unavailable! Haha!" says Kevin in jest.

The series is zooming in to the last 5 episodes this week but the viewers have yet to see the much talked about kissing and make out scenes by the pair. Myolie explains that she was initially quite shy but they communicate before filming and managed to complete the scenes in one or two takes.

Kevin recalled a scene that was quite intense. He revealed that he discussed the positions with Myolie earlier and once filming begins, he will not add or subtract movements. Kevin reasons that any unplanned positions may scare off any girl.

In Ghetto Justice, Kevin has numerous bold performances including him exposing his butt-crack in the first episode. He also ran around the house in nothing but a towel. "The script initially had me reveal just my underwear, but my choice of underwear is just too clean, doesn't fit LA LAW's character. In the end, the director told me to pull my pants down a little more, it's pretty ok!"Kevin shares even more.
