YAU & TO SHARE A CAST
This year's Venice Film Festival will feature the premiere of Johnnie To's EXILED, a spiritual successor to THE MISSION and a film that sports an exceptionally fine cast led by Francis Ng, Anthony Wong and Nick Cheung who seems newly revitalized over the past year.
Thanks to Alex who just sent in the poster for the new Herman Yau (UNTOLD STORY, EBOLA SYNDROME) movie, ON THE EDGE, which sports a cast led by Francis Ng, Anthony Wong and Nick Cheung. Check out that autumnal palette and look at Nick! He's looking tough and uncompromising while sporting a massive pair of aviator shades. Now that's acting.

Herman Yau should take advantage of having Anthony Wong around, scrap On the Edge, and shoot a sequel to Ebola Syndrome instead. I just can't get enough of Anthony Wong running around, breathing on people, and shouting "Ebola!".

I agree!
And Nick Cheung has never been a fave and looks like never will (since I didn't like him in the Election either) Wasn't this guy at one point in his career going to be one of the "next Stephen Chow"s?

Most people only know nick cheung from this slapstick movie days which is kinda sad because he's actually an actor with terrific range. He's very intense in some TVB series and I personally liked him in the Election movies. If they ever made a third one I bet he will be the lead.

NC has good screen chemistry with Francis (Clean My Name, Mr.Coroner) - the movie does not sound bad
