-- Wisely --
Donnie Yen, who is currently filming Kingdom and Beauty and would be doing Painted Skin remake next, is taking a break from martial arts choreography and is conserving his energy and inspirations for a movie adaptation of Wisely, a detective/mystery novel series by Ni Kuang, "Wilson Yip is currently working on the script, taking care of all the character designs. I'd be in charge of the action direction, and I'd also be taking on the role of Wisely. Wisely is a more gentle, refined, cultured person compared to Ma Jun of Flash Point, so the choreography leans towards this direction." Production for Wisely is likely to start in around December.
