Gao Xi Xi, the director of ‘Story of Three Kingdoms’, expressed explicitly that Hong Kong actor Louis Koo is his ideal Lu Bu candidate. “His extraordinarily handsome and heroic look, his performances as many ancient characters let me have the design to cooperate with him.”
At present, the two sides are in close talk.
At 10:00 o'clock this morning (07/13), Gao Xixi accepted an interview in which he indicated that Louis’ manager has just arrived in Beijing for negotiation and discussion of role relating concerned matters. “First is to see whether to finalize LuBu role. Second is to have a further understanding of Louis.” Gao Xixi said that the contract agreement may be reached at the end of this month.
