Filming of Triumph in the Skies 2 postponed

When Triumph in the Skies was broadcast in 2003, it was well received by audiences and achieved good results. As such, TVB recently announced that a sequel for the series will be filmed. However, TVB announced this week that the filming of the sequel will start in December instead of September as previously scheduled. Among the artistes who are rumoured to be involved include Michael Miu, Ron Ng, Kenneth Ma, Bosco Wong, Myolie Wu, Kate Tsui, Fala Chen and Nancy Wu among others.

The series involves high budget and an airline sponsor. Although the production department has commitment from the artistes involved to film in September, it is rumoured that the sponsor has some changes thus causing the filming to be delayed.

The producer for [TITS2] Tommy Leung says, "That is a fact, before we marked up the September schedule for the artists, but because there were problems with the sponsoring airline and we couldn't fly over to the locations for shooting yet, that the schedule was postponed to December. So, we gave the artists back their September schedules."

It is alsoo rumoured that many artistes turned down other jobs in Spetember to commit to filming [TITS2]. Ron Ng was supposed to film a series in China but turned it down for [TITS2]. Now Ron is apparently making a U-turn and trying to renegotiate with the China producers. He says, "still discussing now, if I can't get the China series, I'll just treat September as a time for resting."

As for Myolie Wu, she was rumoured to have reschedule the work on her music album to a later date to accommodate the filming of [TITS2]. Although currently the filming for [TITS2] has been delayed to December, she will be filming Ghetto Justice 2 instead.

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.

Myolie Wu plays a con artist

In the new TVB drama, The Truth Father of Him (Unofficial Title), Myolie Wu plays a con artist whose main targets are rich, old men. She is constantly in disguise, portraying different character such as a maid, a private nurse, a secretary among others. The series is set in the 50s / 60s, so the production set, hairstyle, and costume has to look like those seen during those years.

Myolie loves the make-up and hairstyle during that period of time, "I do like the make-up and hairstyles during that period of time, especially the exaggerating make-up around the eyes. Not long ago, I found an experienced make-up artist to do this make-up on me, and this make-up artist had gone through that period before, thus he/she especially understood the essence of this kind of make-up."

Acting in period dramas is not something new for Myolie. She was seen in another series set around the same period of time, Scavenger's Paradise, alongside Roger Kwok. With the experience from Scavenger's Paradise, Myolie is more confident, "When I was filming Scavenger's Paradise, I did some research on the Cantonese operas to learn more about the way they speak back then. With prior experience from the previous drama, acting it again this time round is much easier."
