23 Jun – Fala Chen recently revealed that she really does have an interest to return to Hong Kong and make another movie, but hasn't found anything that she likes.

As reported on Mingpao, in a recent interview to promote her new miniseries, "Irma Vep", the actress stated that she has been waiting for the right script for her Hong Kong comeback.

"I haven't found a suitable one. At present, most of the productions in Hong Kong are police and gangster films with male actors. But I am really looking forward to returning to Hong Kong," she said.

She also admitted that she had to decline several other offers following her performance in "Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings", as most of them were similar to her role in the said Marvel superhero movie.

"Many want me to play a mother of a Chinese child, but I want different challenges. I don't want to play these roles just because I'm Chinese," she said.

Fala's last Hong Kong project was starring in the 2017 comedy adventure, "The Treasure".

Daniel Green, 26, snorted lines of cocaine during a boozy Friday night out after work, before pouncing on the woman as she slept under a desk. The attack happened in the early hours of May 16 last year, after Green and his stockbroker pals had been bar-hopping around the City with the victim and her friend.

Video shows protesters outside Supreme Court in China's Chongqing
STORY: :: Eyewitness video shows protests outside Chongqing's Supreme Court :: Chongqing, China:: December 2, 2024:: Protesters were upset about a law allowing creditors to target former shareholders in companies :: Now Beijing says the law should not apply to those who sold out before it took effect in July A sweeping overhaul of China's company law took effect in July, allowing companies to hold original shareholders accountable for unpaid sums despite having already transferred their shares.But in a move that surprised legal experts, the Supreme People's Court went further by declaring old shareholders liable for unpaid sums after bankruptcy, even if they had already transferred their shares to new investors.That retroactive enforcement angered investors who worried about potential liabilities after they had cashed out.The protests, which experts said had threatened to turn into a broader social stability concern for Beijing, focused on who should be on the hook when private companies of the kind that once powered China's boom cannot pay their debts or go bust.
