Donnie Yen is Box Office's favourite actor



The Monkey King (西遊記之大鬧天宮) starring Donnie Yen (甄子丹), Chow Yun Fat (周润发), Aaron Kwok (郭富城) and more broke the Box Office record in Mainland with the most number of tickets sold, dubbing Donnie Yen as the most favourite actor. Donnie Yen recently were offered a role in a Hollywood film, but he quickly turned down the role and decided to film for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2: The Green Destiny (臥虎藏龍Ⅱ 鐵騎銀瓶).  Donnie wanted to film for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2 to repay his mentor Yuen Woo-Ping (袁和平) who has supported and helped him throughout his acting career. Donnie Yen is impressed  with boss Harvey Weinstein and producer David Thawties sincerity for casting him to be the lead actor for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2.

Donnie said ten years ago Harvey Weinstein has already asked him to film Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2 and Harvey has been travelling to Hong Kong several times to meet up with Donnie in discussion of his role in the movie. Now everything everything is prepared and are ready for its first filming.

A few days ago, Donnie Yen, wife Cissy Wang (汪詩詩), daughter Jasmine and son James went to dinner at a high class restaurant with Yuen Woo-Ping. That night at 6.40pm, the family arrived at the hotel in a seven-seater car and Donnie was seen wearing a black jacket, white pants and wearing black rimmed glasses, while his son was wearing a necktie looking very smart and then the family of four went upstairs into the hotel. 

The dinner ended in two hours and is believed the dinner was for work purposes, approximately at 9.20pm, Donnie accompanied mentor Woo-Ping out of the hotel for his leaving, while walking out Donnie was putting his arms around his mentor and chatted while waiting for a taxi with him.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 2: The Green Destiny female lead has been confirmed to be Michelle Yeoh (杨紫琼), and there will also be two more young couples who has been confirmed to be in the filming but no further details have been announced.
