Scissored from HKTopten ( www.geocities.com/hktopten/ (http://www.geocities.com/hktopten/) ):
* (5/5/2007) Yuen Wah and his wife yesterday attended the Celestial
Entertainment HERO (MA WING JING) digital video release lucky drawing, the
winner of which would receive two Shanghai round trip plane tickets. Yuen
Wah will soon go abroad for a foreign film audition in Australia.
        Brother Wah said, in this foreign film he will play a servant at a
ranch. The character needed to know a little gong fu and horse riding.
Brother Wah knew how to make the horse walk but he might not be able to
make it run. However, he expressed that for any highly difficult action
scenes he definitely would first buy a lot of insurance.
        While Brother Wah was in Shaw's and Golden Harvest he has already
worked on foreign films, but at the time he did not need to say any line
in English. This time he would need to speak some simple English. If the
audition was successful, he would perform in Australia for two to three
months. The salary would be three or four times of his Hong Kong salary.
        In recent years Hollywood film companies have favored Hong Kong
film remake and foreign financing has invested in Hong Kong films.
Brother Wah expressed that he would like to see his film ICEMAN COMETH
(GUP DUNG KEI HUP) remade. Earlier he saw a Sylvester Stallone movie that
had a lot of similarities to ICEMAN.
