Chou has been cast as Kato, the main character’s sidekick, previously played by the legendary Bruce Lee in the original drama in the 60s.
Hong Kong actor Stephen Chow was previously cast but he pulled out of the production; Korean actor Kwon Sang-woo was once tipped as hot favorite to take the role, but it’s Chou that was chosen.
The movie is scheduled for summer 2009 release; the filming should start pretty soon.
Korean actor Kwon Sang-woo is hopeful to star in a Hollywood film The Green Hornet. He is hot favorite to replace Hong Kong actor Stephen Chow who withdrawn himself from the movie which is based on a popular American TV series.
If things are going well, Kwon will play the role as Kato, played by the late kungfu legend Bruce Lee, as the sidekick for the main character.
