Hey Guys,
Wow.. there is seriously so much news I wanted to post today.. LOL
I have never watched War and Beauty ever, not even a glimpse of it.. so I'm not so sure if its a good drama or not although I know everyone loves it so it must be good. I'm pretty keen with this sequel though, it would be pretty interesting :D I'm loving the cast already ! Perhaps replacing Bowie with Kevin wouldn't be such a bad idea right ? hehe.

TVB prepares for 'War and Beauty 2'



TVB is currently airing reruns of the 7 year old classic drama War and Beauty during the late night hours. Audience are starting to chase the series again with the ratings reaching up to 7 points. Producer Jonathan Chikis preparing to start War and Beauty 2, and anticipates the original cast. However, Gigi Lai has already retired and Bowie Lam left TVB, so the only cast left are Sheren Tang, Charmaine Sheh, Moses Chan and Maggie Cheung. Their schedules still need to be looked at before consideration.

Producer Chik reveals that the production is still in the preliminary planning stage and the cast list is not confirmed yet. Back then, Ada Choi wasn't able to take part in War and Beauty because of her conflicting schedule, but this time she has hope to be in the sequel. Producer Chik said Ada is a very good actress, and hopes she'll be able to participate. The sequel is temporarily scheduled to start in February 2012, and hopes to shoot in other countries. Charmaine and Sheren both expressed they want to participate in the series and hopes their schedules can accommodate.

Hrmmm.. wow another sequel ?! It would make sense if Sheren participated in this series as well.. but it would feel abit weird to see her AGAIN in another series with Wayne :$
Nothing against Wayne or anything.. but I think TVB is giving him the most potential series and airing them towards the anniversary awards. Aren't they just a tad bit unfair ?

Wayne Lai To Star in “Rosy Business 3″; Scriptwriter Cheung Wah Biu Returns to TVB

Wayne Lai (黎耀祥) won two TVB Best Actor awards from starring in Rosy Business <巾幗梟雄> and No Regrets <義海豪情>. Credit must be attributed to scriptwriter, Cheung Wah Biu (張 華標), who fleshed out Wayne’s characters fully. It was understood that Cheung Wah Biu will return to TVB in October 2011 and will partner with Lee Tim Sing (李添勝) on new series, Rosy Business 3 < 巾幗梟雄 3>! Upon learning of the “Iron Triangle” collaboration, Wayne was extremely happy. Perhaps he may even win a third Best Actor award!

In his May birthday celebration, Wayne made a wish that scriptwriter, Cheung Wah Biu would return to TVB. Producer Lee Tim Sing confirmed that Mr. Cheung will make a comeback after a 14-month departure, while resuming his role as Assistant Creative Director.

Rosy Business 3 To Film in April 2012

Tim Gor said that it would be difficult for Rosy Business 3 to have continuity from Rosy Business and No Regrets. “Sheren Tang (鄧萃雯) and Wayne Lai’s characters already died and we can no longer continue their characters. Perhaps there are some elements of continuity in the story, such as setting the time line in the 1960s or pre-modern period. The story will be independent from the earlier series.

“I have set the filming period with Wayne, which will occur in April 2012.” (What about Sheren?) “She is currently busy filming in mainland. I have to discuss the matter with her. Hopefully, she will have time!”

Currently working for a television studio in Taiwan, Cheung Wah Biu indicated that he did not adjust to living there. His wife was upset [and wanted him to return to Hong Kong]. “I did not finish my current work projects yet. It has not been settled yet. During the summer, my wife came to visit me in Taiwan. I have been in frequent contact with Tim Gor and Wayne Lai!”

Wayne was extremely happy about Mr. Cheung’s return. Wayne noted, “I heard that Cheung Wah Biu will return to TVB. My dream came true!” (Are you filming Rosy Business 3?) “Tim Gor mentioned this to me. By the time the new series is released, it would be two years since No Regrets. The audience should have a fresh feeling.” (Do you feel pressure?) “I am not worried. They have fought in many ‘wars’ before. I believe there will be new material for the audience to watch!” Unfortunately, Sheren Tang did not respond to the reporter’s inquiry at the time of the news publication.
