Shaw Brothers' "Flying Tiger" series had great achievements before, as there were endless topics during the broadcast period, and the online platform also set a lot of records. The second installment, "Flying Tiger 2", is also scheduled to premiere on TVB Jade on May 18th, while the third installment, "Flying Tiger 3", is said to start shooting at the end of May. The cast lineup keeps growing: apart from original team members Michael Miu, Bosco Wong, Ron Ng, and Oscar Leung, Joe Ma, who has always been TVB's 'Special Duties Unit (SDU) Icon', and good actor Eddie Cheung, who took part in the first installment, will also 'return' to the shoot. Together with Michael, [they] will lead the juniors to continue their operations. This time, the female lead is Jeannie Chan, who is being promoted by Shaw Brothers.
Joe has always been TVB's 'SDU Icon'. Officially 'returning' this time, he frankly said that he is very happy. He said, "Actually, Miss [Virginia] Lok also looked for me for the first and second installments; however, at the time, I was filming Mainland series. There were schedule conflicts, so [I] could not film. I am also really looking forward to the start of filming because everyone is a familiar acting partner in the series. Believe that it will be filmed happily". Joe expressed that, due to the pandemic, previously, many commercial performances in Mainland were postponed. Would go hiking with his wife in his spare time. Now that he is a vegetarian, his health has clearly gotten better. When asked whether vegetarianism would affect muscle growth, he said, "That's why [I] would eat more healthy plants like chickpeas and quinoa, so as to absorb protein. Hope that the condition is better. (Have been working out?) Have to. Have to pick my physical fitness back up. My son is also in Hong Kong now; would also work out with him when I have time".
Bosco previously injured his left foot while filming the second installment and, at one point, had to halt work to recuperate. Even though he returned to work, he also had to use crutches. When interviewed, he was asked whether there was trauma. He said, "There was no trauma. Still filmed all the same! My foot has recovered a lot now...at least 95 percent". Cannot go to the gym room now. Bosco frankly said that he has gone hiking and has been muscle training at home. When asked whether there was a pay increase to film this time, he laughingly said, "Pay increase? Also happy to have work now! Miss Lok has the final say on whether there is a pay increase!"
Ron expressed, "Extremely happy. Hope that the pandemic will be over soon. Actually, the shooting period is already later than before. It would be best to be able to shoot earlier. (Have to get fit?) Certainly have to work out when facing these strongmen. Michael is already very fit despite not having to work out; I certainly have to work hard".
Jeannie, who is in Canada, expressed in an interview that she will be returning to Hong Kong to film after a long vacation. Playing a Senior Inspector of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) this time, she frankly said that she has more scenes with Michael and Bosco. She said, "Haven't collaborated with Michael before, but I already collaborated with Bosco in my second movie. At that time, did not know what I was doing at all. Was extremely shy, so there wasn't much communication with him. Thus, also very happy to be able to have an opportunity to collaborate again after so many years".
