Hong Kong director plans to put Kidman on center stage of his new production
Lady from Shanghai, which begins shooting in June.
Wong said Kidman did not request to see the screenplay, which fully reflected
her trust in Wong.
It seems Kidman has already prepared to adapt to Wong's trademark directing
style, which focuses less on script and more on on-spot shooting.
Wong also revealed Kidman already knew the major plot line of the story.
The story is inspired by a lady in danger and mixes love with espionage. The
movie will be produced in Shanghai but features an international cast.
Therefore, selection of the working language to be employed during shooting
attracted plenty of attention.
"The movie will mainly feature English, but it is not decided yet, as the
whole script has not been finished yet," said Wong.
Some news sources have reported that Kidman plans to commit one year to the
movie, as Wong is famous for his slow process of shooting.
However, Wong responded it would take only a few
months.
