“Life is a train that goes in one direction.”
The voices of the Chinese dub of Spirited Away – Zhou Dongyu, Jing Boran, Peng Yuchang, Wang Lin, and Tian Zhuangzhuang – posed for a set of posters inspired by their animated counterparts. The film will receive a belated wide release in theaters in China on the June 21st. FYI, it was previously available online/via DVD, not banned as some headlines seem to imply.

We get our first glimpse of the three brothers in the first trailer for upcoming Republican drama New World. There’s the local gangland boss (Sun Honglei), the Kuomintang government official (Zhang Luyi) and the policeman (Yin Fang), and the three brothers go through various internal struggles before finally deciding to band together and welcome the Communists into Beiping. Weibo video here if the Youtube video doesn’t work.
Six best actresses – Joan Chen, Karena Lam, Zhao Tao, Gwei Lun-mei, Ma Sichun, and Chun Xia – gather for this photoshoot by Feng Chuxuan. I would love if some magazine started doing Chinese versions of the Vanity Fair photoshoots.

Posters, stills, photoshoots, and random photos that caught my eye this week.
Tang Yan will see you now.

The photoshoot is probably one of the more interesting “event photoshoots” lately, although they didn’t even bother to change the color palette when they ripped off of a Ni Ni Gucci ad.
Who looked the best?

Award-winning young actresses Zhou Dongyu, Chun Xia, Ma Sichun, and Wenqi are not only great actresses but also look amazing in photoshoots. Here’s a couple of their recent-ish photoshoots..
Loosely based on Jiu Yuexi’s In His Youth, In Her Beauty, the new film from Derek Tsang (Soul Mate) is titled In His Youth 少年的你, and focuses on the issue of schoolyard bully and its consequences. Zhou Dongyu (Us and Them) plays model student Chen Nian, and Yi Yangqianxi (currently seen in variety show Phantacity 2018) costars as phys ed student Bei Ye, an outcast at school who becomes a good friend of the heroine.
Zhou Dongyu is way too cute in this ad for Rio (that colorful, fruity cocktail you see in every other drama). She recently wrapped up acting in Behind the Scenes 幕后之王 with Luo Jin.
Actress Zhou Dongyu goes makeup-free (but not PS free. It is a Chen Man photoshoot, after all) in these two photo shoots.
The actress has two upcoming films- April 28 release Us and Them opposite Jing Boran and June 28 release Animal World opposite Li Yifeng.
