What's Wong Kar-Wai Making Next'!
Hi, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab...
The reviews of 2046 coming out of Cannes have me salivating. I love this guy’s films, and I think he’s one of the great particular personal artists working in Asian cinema right now, making films that are unlike anything else out there. The idea of his next film being... well... just read this...
Hey Harry-
Something that should get your juices going. I read an piece in Chinadaily.com about Tony Leung about the next pic with WKW would be a martial arts pic. Now, it's being reported that it will be a Bruce Lee bio pic. Not exactly how this will play out with the Autuer's style, but interesting nevertheless.

In AICN Chat last night, we were discussing the Rob Cohen biopic of Bruce Lee, DRAGON, which I personally can’t stand. I thought Jason Scott Lee was totally miscast, and I hated the liberties they took with the facts of his life. I don’t demand absolute word-for-word authenticity, but I never got the sense that Cohen really understood what made Lee so amazing in the first place. The idea of an artist like Wong Kar-wai making this picture with Tony Leung starring makes me absolutely giddy. This could be really special, and we’ll definitely keep our ears open and report anything else we hear about it in the months ahead.
