Martial Universe adds Wu Chun, The Escapee selects Wan Qian

Casting calls! These two dramas definitely fit the bill of being highly anticipated. The leads have been chosen but we also need a solid supporting cast!

=======> ♦ Ancient drama, Martial Universe, previously confirmed Yang Yang and Zhang Tian Ai as the leads and now they will add Taiwanese actor, Wu Chun (Kindaichi Case Files), to play Yang Yang’s adversary. Wu Chun is 37?! 37?! Dude looks good. Lol. The other rumored actor is Ashton Chen Xiao Long. Please for heaven’s sake, be him!! This will definitely boost my Kid hubby’s career! PLEASE!

=======> ♦ The Escapee is Chen Kun‘s comeback series to dramaland. Production will begin rolling in December. Miss Wan Qian is chosen as his female lead. My first impression is…. She reminds me of Tavia Yeung! She’s in a couple of upcoming projects as well, Jing Tian’s Glory of The Tang Dynasty, Huang Xuan’s Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy, and Wallace Huo’s Hide and Seek.

    ….Not sure how I’m feeling with the casting of Wu Chun…

    I love him dearly…but every bone in my being is screaming no because I can envision him as the lead mores than Yang Yang T_T

      It’s villainous role, so hopefully a lot of screen time? But I can’t guarantee a happy ending for Mr. Wu! Lol.

    PLEASE LET IT BE CHEN XIAO LONG. Please. Let the luck shine upon him lol. LET HIM BE THE MARTIAL ARTS STAR HE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE!!

    That second picture of Wan Qian sure looks like Tavia.
    Haven’t seen Wu Chun for a very long time.

        love the little monk 🙂
        Watched him in three dramas with one of them being Young Justice Bao.
        Great lad. They should cast him in more dramas though.

    I don’t think I’ve seen Wu Chun in any dramas since Hana Kimi wayyy back from my high school days. Looks like we’ll have lots of eye candy in Martial Universe haha. I’m pinning my hopes on the ladies for the acting XP

      Me too. When I think about it…. I didn’t even watch Hana Kimi the Taiwanese version!!! HAH.

      LOL@ the ladies!!

    Longer version of YY and Crystal’s CF. She’s in total fangirl mode. XD

    Wan Qian is a good actress. I’ve mainly seen her play strong career women types. She’s well due for some recognition.

    *Praying for Ashton* If he gets in on this it will be a real boost for him since it’ll have Yang Yang and Wu Chun. I would love to see him on variety shows too!! He’s not getting any younger so I really, reaaaalllyy hope he starts fighting (literally and figuratively) for more exposure for himself >o<

      It still saddens me that his true potential is not picked up by these directors! He should’ve been a star in the martial arts world by now! Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen, he’s right here!

    AR it’s been awhile for Wu Chun in a drama. I still can’t get behind him and his acting. But for what’s worth he did improve over the years. I thk he’s more business savvy than in his acting. Also pretty good that the guy does charity without publishing it over the media. Him and yang yang will provide lot of eyecandy for sure

What do you think?
