Former Bond girl Michelle Yeoh says she will star in an upcoming kung fu movie directed by John Woo, adding that she's not avoiding action movies despite a recent break from the genre.
The Tomorrow Never Dies and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon actress told a press conference at the 12th Shanghai International Film Festival that the Chinese-language film will start shooting in China in September.
She said Woo will share directing duties on the film - tentatively called The Sword and the Martial Arts World - with Taiwanese filmmaker Su Chao-pin, who directed the horror film Silk.
