Ah, so after the initial rumored cast was exposed back in November, we finally have our confirmed cast and first batch of wintry stills for Leo Wu Lei‘s next epic costume drama, Fights Break Sphere, adapted from Battle Through the Heavens (斗破苍穹), a xianxia novel written by Tian Can Tu Dou with over 1000 chapters. Male lead was confirmed months ago for Wu Lei’s casting and now we have his female lead in Lin Yun, a film actress who broke into the scene by playing the mermaid in Stephen Chow’s movie, The Mermaid. She’s 20 to Leo’s 17. Very close! Her character, Xiao Xun Er, is adopted by male lead’s family and his childhood friend, very loyal and dedicated to him.
First Batch of Stills:
The synopsis from Wuxia World: In a land where no magic is present. A land where the strong make the rules and the weak have to obey. A land filled with alluring treasures and beauty, yet also filled with unforeseen danger. Three years ago, Xiao Yan, who had shown talents none had seen in decades, suddenly lost everything. His powers, his reputation, and his promise to his mother. What sorcery has caused him to lose all of his powers? And why has his fiancee suddenly shown up? Our male lead is described as a sly and unstable person. His power is lost because it was absorbed by a spirit in his ring (given by his mother). The spirit needed his power to wake up from a deep slumber. The spirit then becomes his master.
CARMAN LEE! Riding a horse like a beautiful boss. Our gugu! Amazing to have her back in a costume drama.
This is Baron Chen, but I don’t recognize him. Lol.
Ling Xiao Su.
Norman Chui.
Journey through the snow!
Li Qin is the other female lead, Xiao Yi Xian, cursed with a poisonous body. Other cast members are Chen Ze Xi, Wu Jia Cheng, Gu Jia Cheng, Xiao Zhan, Xin Zhi Lei, and Deng Lun. No stills of them yet.
Directed by South Korean director, Kang Je Gyu (Salut d’Amour, Bad Guys Always Die), Fights Break Sphere has 45 episodes and filming just kick-started. Interesting, a korean director on board.

I heard that also, but XiaoYan doesn’t marry Li Qin’s character, instead he marries Xun Er and snake woman. I don’t know what’s importance Li Qin’s character in this drama.

Confusion! My bad, so many girls. Novel fans said Li Qin’s character is one of the main heroines but got forgotten. With her being fourth in the poster, I can imagine changes to the story.

Firstly I anticipate this drama because of Leo wu and carmen lee, and now after I heard Kang Je Gyu will be directed this drama I become more excited. he is popular movie director in korea: Kang’s most notable contributions to Korean cinema have been Shiri and Wonbin’s Taegukgi. Shiri was the first big budget Hollywood-style action film made in Korea, which broke box office records and was partially responsible for the popularization of domestic films in the country. Taegukgi, directed five years later, again rewrote box office records. If Li Qin play as Xiao Yi Xian, so who actress will play XiaoYan’s ex fiance?

According to the poster, ex-finance is Liu Yu Pu.

It has started filming? Wow, I thought the casting news were just released not Long ago. Cannot really recall anything in the novel that is in the snow, so maybe there will be big changes to the drama.
And only 45 episodes?? How will they cover the content? Maybe just the front part till he go to school?
