The Glory of Tang Dynasty begins filming with Jing Tian and Shu Chang

This is too funny. Let me list out the confirmed casting for ya’ll: Jing Tian, Shu Chang, Qin Jun Jie, and Mao Zi Jun. With the exception of Jing Tian, the other three members literally walk off from one drama set to the next together. First, they were in The Legend of Chusen, then they filmed a new drama with Yang Zi two months ago called Legend of the Dragon Pearl, and now, hand-in-hand, all three are included in new palace drama The Glory of Tang Dynasty (大唐荣耀). LOL! Not to mention the boys were also in Ruby’s Singing All Along.

Do they come as a package deal or what?

The story follows Consort Shen who was known as “the wise and true empress” during the Tang Dynasty (and only honored as Empress Dowager after her supposed death), wife to Emperor Daizong of Tang (Li Chu) and mother of Emperor Dezong (Li Kuo). After being captured by rebels during the Anshi Rebellion in 759, she disappeared and was announced as deceased in 805, despite multiple attempts to locate her. During those years, many women came and pretended to be the missing Consort and were all declared as fakes. [Wiki]

I think this is an interesting historical figure to model into a drama because not much is known about Consort Shen (let me know!), hence the writer is free to create and twist as much as she can on a narrative level. It also helps that I love seeing new faces and Jing Tian is definitely missed after her lively performance in The Legend of Banshu.

    Love Jing Tian even though I haven’t liked any of her works (except her Police Story 2013 movie with Jackie Chan…that I liked). Based on the styling and costuming of Beauties (the one with HBQ and Sebrina and Vic), as long as the costuming is quality and accurate, I’m going to really like the Tang Dynasty wardrobe.

    Also a huge fan of Shu Chang, but why does she have to be second lead? I’m assuming Jing Tian’s gonna be main lead, but I really with Shu Chang got main lead…and a good stylist that actually makes her look her age. She looks nice and youthful in these booting ceremony pics.

      I did too! Until I see the other two pics down. Glad she maintained her old looks, in my opinion Li Yi Tong is already too identical with Zheng Shuang.

    I love the leading cast, package deal and all. Don’t know too much about Tang empresses so I’ll have to read up.
