The popular boy band MIRROR members Anson Lo, Edan, Jiang Tao, Zhang Jicong and Bai Zhi will star in the Emperor’s movie “The Moon Thief” which will be released on New Year’s Eve (9th). However, good news has been reported on the eve of the release. The film was invited to be the opening film of the 19th Osaka Asian Film Festival. Director Yuan Jianwei and all the actors were very excited. Director Yuan Jianwei said excitedly that the coronation of “Theft” at the Osaka Asian Film Festival is of great significance: “Every actor and his work The dedication of the staff has been recognized by international film festivals, and it is natural and honorable to be invited to be the opening film! The biggest significance this time is that the judges saw the intention of the film production and were able to put aside the idol frame and give it objective recognition. It also allows them to truly impress non-Hong Kong audiences as actors!” We also hope that we can attend the film festival in person with the actors, experience the unique atmosphere of the film festival, and listen to the feedback of local movie fans up close.
Anson Lo is also deeply honored by this: “The film “The Robbers” is my first New Year film, and it is also a very special experience for me. Usually New Year films are family films that unite and rejoice, but this time There are a lot of fighting scenes. It is an action drama. It is an honor to be able to participate in this film. When filming in Japan, I spent a lot of time with other actors because the weather was not good during the filming and it often rained. The location and scene were temporarily changed, and the plot also had to be slightly adjusted accordingly. Director Yuan, A Cong, and Bai Zhi all tried their best to help. In addition, I played the role of Ayou, which was very difficult at first. He is an ordinary little boy, so what? It’s extremely challenging to play a character in a three-dimensional way, so I’d like to thank A Cong and Bai Zhi for their help!”
Edan felt honored and wanted to express his heartfelt thanks: “I would like to thank the front and backstage staff for putting in a lot of time and effort and taking this work very seriously. I feel so encouraged to get this valuable result today! This time from Osaka Asian Film The good news also brought back my memories of shooting in Japan. It was the first time I shot a movie abroad. During that month of intensive shooting, I had to shoot until the early morning almost every day. I got up early in the morning and set off again. The schedule was so tight. Fortunately, I like Japan so much that I can still feel relaxed. I take advantage of my free time to visit a nearby convenience store, have a bite of skewers or sushi, and then eat a bowl of ramen after work. Sometimes I rarely have a holiday for shopping. Although the shooting process was very hard and took a lot of time. It took a lot of effort and time, but looking back at the whole process, I’m really happy!” Jiang Tao, who performed in the special performance, said: “This role is a big breakthrough, and it’s also a new attempt. It’s my first time to fire a real gun. Everyone looks at me like I have no fear, in fact I am very scared inside! I hope that through this drama, Japanese audiences can get to know us actors better!”
As for Zhang Jicong’s personal experience: “This movie is a work that I am proud of and full of emotions. I have always loved shopping in Japan, and I hope that this shortlist can be used as a status symbol to show my appreciation to major stores.” Show: “I am a professional actor!” and get a big discount, thank you!” Bai only thought that there seemed to be a subtle fate between the “Pirates” film and Japan: “We once went to Japan to shoot, and now by chance it will be Osaka. The opening film of the Asian Film Festival. I hope Japanese audiences will like this work. I think this kind of international film festival is a professional event in the film industry. It is an honor to be able to participate as an actor. Japan is a film industry. It’s a very powerful country, so I’m looking forward to this film festival!”
