-- Fatal Move --

The gala premiere of Fatal Move on Feb 26 was attended by director Dennis Law, producer Charles Heung and his son Jacky Heung, most of the cast members including Sammo Hung, Simon Yam, Ken Lo, Wu Jing, Maggie Shiu, Tien Niu, Carisa Yan, Lau Kam Ling, etc.

Simon Yam appears especially excited. He greets the audiences effusively and also provides autographs prodigiously. He says that at Berlin Film Festival, the film was sold to an India distributor and he was invited to do promotions in India in May.

Sammo Hung appears quieter and more stoic, and he doesn't forget to promote the younger generations. He says that Wu Jing is one with very bright future, but timing is not favourable due to lack of martial arts films being produced. Sammo Hung hopes that, given his skills, Wu Jing would carve out a niche for himself in the film industry.
