Phew! It’s been a while since I last read news about this movie! Filming wrapped up in 2019 (pre-Covid era) and was produced by Louis Koo’s company, One Cool. For those who don’t know, the movie is a continuation of a popular time-travel Hong Kong drama released in 2001 and I’m so happy to see the same faces back in this sequel. They all look pretty amazing in their 40s and 50s. I am actually pretty excited to watch this movie, the music in the trailers alone brings me back to the good old times of some solid tvb dramas. Though I have to say the drama was pretty dark when I rewatched it a few years ago.
Back to the Past hits theaters on 12/31~

Synopsis of the Movie Per One Cool’s Website: An unjust imprisonment sets off a crisis that will change history as we know it!
After losing everything for a crime he didn’t commit, Ken vows to travel back to the Qin Dynasty and reclaim everything he lost by usurping the throne.
Still living in the Qin Dynasty, Hong Siu-long now lives as a recluse with his family in the countryside. However, his disciple, the Qin Emperor, still watches his every move. When the unified Qin Dynasty’s short-lived peace is shattered by Ken’s sudden attack, the Qin Emperor is forced to turn to the mentor that he respects and fears for the first time in 20 years. Their fight against the time-traveling villain will change the fate of the Qin Dynasty and the course of history.
Raymond’s crooked man bun is sending me to villain hood. Lololol.
I think of the whole cast, Jessica looks the most ageless. Miss, where’s the fountain of youth!
Sonia is still lovely as well.
Joyce! <3
