Emperor starts 'Twins Effect 2'
HONG KONG -- Production has started on Emperor Multimedia Group's sequel to its 2003 summer action hit Twins Effect. Twins Effect 2, starring Charlene Tsoi and Gillian Chung, who form the highly popular pop duo Twins, will mark the first EMG film to roll into production since Albert Lee took over the helm of EMG from Carl Chang in May. Despite the name, Twins Effect 2 will not strictly be a sequel to Twins Effect, which grossed $3.7 million. While the first installment -- directed by Dante Lam and Donnie Yen -- was about two young vampire hunters, the sequel will be a period martial arts piece with Choi and Chung as two warriors from an all-female country out to conquer men. The sequel will be directed by Patrick Leung (Demi-Haunted) and also stars Daniel Wu (Purple Storm), Edison Chen (Gen-Y Cops) and Jackie Chan's son, Jaycee Chan, in his film debut.
