Stephen Chow Won’t Direct Seth Rogen’s GREEN HORNET After All!!

I am – Hercules!!


Stephen Chow will still play Kato in the superheroic Seth Rogen comedy-actioner "The Green Hornet," but he'll no longer direct the project.

Creative differences are blamed.

A new director is being sought to shepherd the script by Rogen & Evan Goldberg ("Superbad," "Pineapple Express") to the big screen.
