The Battle of Red Cliff

Dikenal juga dengan “Red Cliff” aja, lagi2 dibintangi ama Takeshi Kaneshiro ( wah senangnya ^-^). Selain itu ada juga Tony Leung n Chang Chen (pasti dah pada kenal kan?). Nih film rencana rilis 2008 sebelum olimpiade di Beijing.

Ceritanya diangkat dari novel berjudul Romance of The Three Kingdoms. Tapi, blue print nya justru tentang kronologi (riwayat/sejarah) dari 3 kerajaan (Wu, Shu, Wei) bukan “romance”nya  kecewa deh ;(

Disutradai oleh John Woo, film ini memakan bujed yg sangat besar. Dua kali lipatnya The Warlods ( lihat posting sebelumnya). Mau tau? 80 juta US$! Saat ini sih nih film dapet predikat sebagai film termahal di asia bo! Keren kan?

Jelas aja nih film makan banyak bujed. Ada 3 kerajaan n yg pasti berapa byk prajurit dibutuhin coba? Ya... ya... I see...

Btw, ada dua orang Jepang yg lolos audisi ikutan maen di sini nih, Nakamura Shido n Koyuki. Sampe saat ini, Nakamura shido udah dapet peran sebagai Wa Long (jendral kepercayaan Zhou Yu  Tony Leung). Koyuki sendiri belom ditentuin perannya apa.

Sebelomnya, Ken Watanabe malah terpilih buat maenin Cao Cao. Tapi sayang, diprotes... Fans ga terima kalo orang Jepang maenin karakter tokoh bersejarah China yang emang budaya China bgt. Kacian ya... Padahal kan nih film diprediksi bakal nembus pasaran Amerika kaya film2 epic pendahulunya.

Kerennya lagi, Chow Yun Fat juga udah pernah terpilih tuh buat meranin tokoh Zhou Yu. Karena berbagai alasan, ga jadi deh. Akhirnya peran ini dikasih ke Tony Leung. Padahal sebelomnya Tony Leung dapet peran sebagai Zhuge Liang. Malahan peran itu fix di Takeshi Kaneshiro.
