HONG KONG : Hong Kong star Vivian Chow is set to make
heads turn in her big screen comeback after 12 years.
The singer-actress will play a lesbian in a romantic comedy
directed by award-winning director Ann Hui, reported
Sina.com.
In the film which title has yet to be unveiled, the 42-year-old
will share passionate kissing scenes with her on-screen lover
played by Hong Kong actress Sandra Ng.
Filming for the movie is scheduled to start next month.
According to reports, Chow was so attracted to the role that she
decided to make an exception and return to acting. Featuring bold
sex scenes with Ng, this could be a breakthrough role for Chow who
has mostly acted in unforgettable sweetie pie roles.
Chow who enjoyed much popularity throughout the late 1980s and the
1990s as a Canto-pop sweetheart, made headlines last year after
reports of her then boyfriend Joe Nieh cheating on her were
splashed across the tabloids. The couple married in a low-key
wedding in January this year.
