Ali Lee doesn't mind being second choice for new drama

27 Nov – Ali Lee has no issues being the second choice to play the lead of new drama, "BB is Coming" (working title), following Eliza Sam's decision to decline the project.

As reported on Mingpao, the actress who appeared at the press conference announcing the new pregnancy-related drama, said that she is used to being the replacement for other actresses, having done so for projects like "Law dis-Order" and "Provocateur".

"It doesn't matter to me. The most important thing is that it's fun to do these roles," she said.

It was reported that Eliza decided to withdraw from the project to focus on her family life for the time being, having tied the knot just a year before.

Ali shared that the drama will feature the whole pregnancy process from day one, and that she and the other actresses will be wearing silicone pregnant bellies of various sizes to represent the nine months of pregnancy.

The upcoming drama also co-stars Lai Lok Yi, Samantha Ko, and Stephen Huynh.
