Will Yuzheng turn State of Divinity into a melodrama? Or make the series romance centered?
If Chen Qiao En is going to be Dong Fang Bu Bai, that mean Yu Zheng will most probably expand on the role. Chen is a famous Taiwanese actress who always lead in her drama. I don't think they will give her a small role.

Not sure if this is true or not, but according to Ms. Koala's blog, Joe Chen(along with Wallace) is the lead?

Wallace Huo declined playing Jiu Ye in DMY to play Linghu Chong (such a no brainer choice, c’mon, it’s the best male lead EVER in wuxia-verse), Han Dong will be our resident pervert Tian Bo Guang, Yuan Shan Shan gets the coveted role of Ren Ying Ying, and in the most headdesking casting and sure-to-be-plot butchering, Chen Qiao En has been cast as Dong Fang Bu Bai. Yes, you all heard that right. And she’s the first female (male?) lead over Ren Ying Ying.

don't worry.. that's her. She posted it herself on her qq account.
I'm not really a fan of Koala's playground nor am I an anti- but I did note to myself to stay away from her blog especially after the DMY casting uproar. So I'll only believe that if it has really been confirmed by YZ himself or someone reliable enough. But if I remember correctly, YZ did say that he will try to stick to the original (not verbatim nor exact translation). And also read somewhere that JY will approve the script. And that YZ will focus more on LHC-YLS romance... So... we'll see

I personally hope he would (just not to make LHC and DFBB fall in love or anything close to it ) since DFBB is described as formidable and even LHC was scared of him/her. Actually, even when I read the novel, I find it such a waste to be giving DFBB such a little role when she/he's supposedly someone powerful.

Not a fan of her blog either but I think her news is abit behind.
Yu Zheng did said that on his Weibo long time ago, but after alot of attack from fans alike, he said that he was just joking or something. If you go through these post here Tobeme has mentioned about DFBB as lead here somewhere.
I was late finding out about this new adaptation so I haven't read anything like that. But I've been here for at least a month already. Which means its been more than a month since that "rumor" came out and since it was "just a joke", then it shouldn't be taken seriously anymore... and more importantly bloggers shouldn't blog about it like as if it's real and true.

I thing Yu Zheng might increase DFBB's scenes in this new SOD but I don't think he'll 'dare' to make LHC falling in love with DFBB. For one thing JY himself approved the final script. Also, it's impossible to make Joe the "female" lead as she is a Taiwanese. It's the China rule -- one of the leads must be a mainlander.
Mei Ren Xin Ji..LM and LF not mainlander (Ruby Lin/TW and Sammul Chan/HK),Beauty of The Emperor (Joe Chen and Ming Dao/TW),Mei Ren Tian Xia (Zhang Ting/TW and Ming Dao/TW)
That what I was saying about her blog, her news is always late news. When she posted the article about Wallace as Meng Jiu in DMY, that was what fans wanted and Koala was adamant that Wallace rejected Meng Jiu's role to go for LHC, that it wasnt Wallace's intention to do DMY, plus he was already rumoured to do SOD and confirmed by Yu Zheng way before she posted her DMD's cast article.
I don't know when did this rule come out but for a drama to qualify as a "made in China" one of the leads must be a mainlander. If the dramas are produced in Hong Kong or Taiwan there is no such rule. The rule was made to protect mainland artistes. In fact, China are from time to time implementing new rules to protect the local establishments. Some new rules are about to be launched to protect certain local professionals.

Lol, I can see why Wallace accepted the role of Linghu Chong, since he seems attracted to characters like that. I don't doubt Wallace's ability to create "professional" chemistry with his co-stars, but, well, it's a YZ production after all....
And I don't really see YSS as RYY but who knows...maybe she'll pull off a surprise performance. (She is an okay actress, but she seems a bit lacking in appeal...so I can tolerate her). At least there's no stupid Mickey He to kill the show for me.

that was the first red flag for me too.
I'm not a fan of Mickey He nor do I dislike him. In fact I think he is a good actor, but I would have to agree with you, I'm thankful he won't be in it
finally! some news about the prod! thanks tobemela.

Wallace is in the hospital because of his injured back. He injured his back while shooting for Hong Fu Nu and ever since it has always been a problem to him. At that time he didn't rest and continued shooting and prolonged the problem. I guess the recent recurrence was probably due to his sword practice. Hope he would feel better to get in time for SOD.
Yu hasn't made even a small noise about SOD. The two pictures of the Huashan setup were posted by a passerby!
