Guo Xiaodong stills
Directed by John Woo, the fantasy martial arts blockbuster "Sword Rain" recently premiered at the 67th Venice Film Festival. The film brings together famous movie stars Yang Ziqiong, Zheng Yusheng, Da S, Wang Xueqi, Guo Xiaodong, Jiang Yiyan and others. As one of the lead actors, Guo Xiaodong plays the swordsman Zhang Renfeng in the film. In this all-star film, Guo Xiaodong, a warm-hearted man on the screen, quietly transforms into the hero in Woo’s film, which can be described as the secret weapon in "Sword Rain".
Guo Xiaodong and Michelle Yeoh have a mysterious relationship
The script "Sword Rain" written by the screenwriter Su Zhaobin can be said to be tailor-made for Yang Michelle, and the character played by Yang Michelle has a lot of emotional entanglements with the male stars. But the relationship between Guo Xiaodong’s character and Yang Michelle has been kept secret by the crew. And from the official promotional trailer of "Sword Rain", only the dynamic picture of swords, swords and shadows, and big names can be seen. There is no text at all, and the shot of Guo Xiaodong’s role as a swordsman in the picture is also complete. But in the recently exposed star constellation posters, Guo Xiaodong’s mysterious appearance has once again attracted attention. On the poster, he held daggers in his left and right hands, and he transformed into a representative of "Aquarius Man" with a slightly elegant temperament and burning eyes, and was evaluated as: Maverick, like innovation, pursue freedom, my life can be copied.
Mention Guo Xiaodong, John Woo plays word games
Not long ago, when Wu Yusen introduced the role played by Guo Xiaodong at the press conference, in addition to dividing it into the "good people group", he also mentioned a little more mysterious: "In the film, Guo Xiaodong and Zheng Yusheng have a great relationship." Director Wu’s big play with words this time has made everyone more confused about Guo Xiaodong’s role. Whether he and Zheng Yusheng are enemies or friends, and what kind of grudges and enmities the two have, it is full of expectations.
