When Louis Koo (古天樂) and Raymond Lam (林峯) filmed the TVB series A Step Into the Past <尋秦記> in 2001, tabloids speculated that they were on bad terms. Louis was reportedly not fond of Raymond’s physique and tanned skin color, which he believed was a carbon copy of himself. However, he will reportedly produce a film version of the drama next year and has invited Raymond to be a part of it, disproving their previous rumors of discord. According to sources, Louis hopes the original cast will star in the new film. Earlier, he was spotted together with Raymond and several veteran actors at a famous restaurant in Causeway Bay. Louis acted like an elder brother and had his hand on Raymond’s shoulder. They seemed to be great friends, and even wore shoes of the same style. At around 9:00p.m. that night, reporters first spotted Sean Lau’s (劉青雲) car parked outside the restaurant. One hour later, Sean, Francis Ng (吳鎮宇), and Cheung Tat Ming (張達明) stepped out of the building with red faces, and it is assumed that they had been drinking. When the group caught sight of reporters, Sean remained low-profile while Francis generously smiled and greeted the press. Battling cancer, Tat Ming possessed a skinny figure, but seemed to be in good spirits. Sean drove Francis home since they both live in Sai Kung, while Tat Ming waved down a taxi. Louis and Raymond did not exit the restaurant until 11:00p.m. Their faces were also red, and it was evident that they had been drinking as well. Louis was dressed up in a Thom Browne jacket and Dsquared jeans. His Valentino sneakers are estimated to cost $5300 HKD. Raymond wore a similar style of shoes, although the color was slightly different. When approached by reporters, Louis admitted the group had been discussing big plans. Creds: ihktv
I loved this drama so much I've watched it 4 times from beginning to end. I can't wait for the movie version!
Hope they don't F*** it up like Triumph in the Skies! The higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment!
this is one of the last good tvb series imo... i really love this one though, only actor i couldn't stand in the whole series was the princess who couldn't act ("little white"). hope the movie will be good unlike some other movie adaptations/sequels of tvb series *cough* triump into the skies *cough*.
Awww... that series was great~ going to re-watch it again IF Louis is in the movie version I'd hope they don't make it a flop cos the series was a good memory
this movie seem like it's still in the early phases, so I hope everything works out so filming can begin.
One things I hope they don't do is too much CGI - remembering this was a series about when they went back in time... hopefully they don't make the storyline/effects too over the top and stick to the original story/idea
quite observant but yea, Step into the Past was a great series, my only stab at it was Michelle as the princess...she looks too white to be an ancient Chinese character lol
