Hera Chan, Joey Law, and Edwin Siu Join "No Return", Fighting to Learn from Wayne Lai

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

TVB's grand production "No Return" will officially start filming in Hengdian at the end of next month. The cast and crew are going to Hengdian in groups to prepare. The story this time is totally unrelated to the prevous installments. It will be a completely new story and characters, but it will continue to use the 'heroine' spirit. Those before the screen and behind the scenes look forward to it making a new impact. Previously, on.cc was the first to reveal that the male and female leads of this series are confirmed to be Wayne Lai and Nancy Wu. The previous soul star Sheren Tang is not destined to reunite with Wayne. Sheren also responded to this on social media, clearly stating that it had been discussed for four years and was also disappointed that it could not happen in the end. She also emphasized that it had nothing to do with the pay. Regarding this, Producer Fong Chun Chiu said in an interview, "Worked on the script of this project for a long time. When preparing for it initially, did think of different candidates for the male and female leads. Certainly considered Sheren and had always discussed it with her; however, in terms of the conditions, found that there was a great discrepancy. The chances of collaborating were very small, so already decided to cast Nancy very early on". Speaking of Sheren's claim that the pay was not the issue, he said, "Of course, the conditions are multifaceted...not just one. There are many things to consider".

Currently, the supporting actors include Edwin Siu, Joey Law, and Hera Chan. Other actors include Lisa Ch'ng, Gabriel Harrison, et al. Hera, who is taking part in a series set in the early Republic for the first time, is wrapping up the new series "The Dead Will Tell". She said in an interview, "There are still a few days to wrap up. For these few days, I have also been working hard to shoot all day, only using the time after getting off work to do homework so that I would be able to get myself into condition as soon as possible to prepare for the filming of 'No'". Supporting actor Joey said, "Very happy. Actually already heard that [I] had a part in filming it last year, but there was no news after that. I am greatly looking forward to working with Wayne. Hope to be able to learn from him". Joey said that he has never left Hong Kong for a few months to film a series, so [he] is a little nervous. He said, "Usually also have to accompany my mom and cats and dogs, and also scared of forgetting to bring things, but heard people say that Hengdian has everything. I am greatly looking forward to it. Looking at the script every night now, and I also like it very much. Will work hard to delve into the role. Hope that there will be a breakthrough in terms of the styling". Joey also pointed out that the weather in Hengdian is very hot now, but it will be super cold in December, laughingly saying, "Thus, [I] have to bring a lot of clothes. Basically have to bring clothes for the four seasons".

Lisa said when interviewed, "Very thankful to the producer for giving me the opportunity! Also previously filmed the series 'The Ghetto-Fabulous Lady', which was set in the early Republic and was also produced by Fong Chun Chiu. This time, my main scenes are with Nancy. Previously collaborated in 'Mission Run'. Plus, we have common friends, so I know that she is a very nice and great person. Also greatly looking forward to collaborating with Wayne, Nancy, and Edwin this time. Can definitely learn a lot of things from Wayne! I believe that this filming will definitely be a great experience".

- 10 episodes long.
- To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the opening of the Hong Kong International Airport, TVB, with the co-production of Airport Authority Hong Kong, is filming this series with a theme on the aviation industry, and is shooting entirely on real locations at the Hong Kong International Airport.
- The protagonists are a group of airport employees behind the scenes, talking about their daily work in different positions, allowing viewers to better understand how this group of unsung heroes maintains smooth airport operations with a professional attitude and serves the public with a passenger-oriented spirit.
- The story revolves around airport employees in different positions. Ninety-five percent of the plot takes place within the airport. The story summarizes different positions and talks about their daily work conditions.
- The story centres on the daily work of employees. The story does not need to be too dramatic because, for airport employees, nothing trivial happens at the airport. The goal of airport employees is the hope that every passenger is happy for the rest of the journey. Even if it is a trivial thing, they would go all out to do it. The series will also show their passenger-oriented attitude.
- Kenneth Ma will play Yeung Seung Wai (楊尚偉), a duty manager of the central control centre of the Airport Authority. He is the 'brain behind the scenes' who maintains the smooth operation of the airport. He is the commander of flight ascension and descension. If there is a problem with a piece of luggage, it is his business. If a connecting passenger is late getting on his or her flight, it is also his problem. If there is a No. 10 typhoon signal and a black rainstorm, he has to hold meetings with different departments to maintain all the operations. He, Tsui Wing, Tony Hung, and Samantha Ko are called 「機場四劍俠」. He and Sisley Choi are a newly divorced couple, but there are also sweet recollection scenes. He gets crushed on by Rosita Kwok. All are light romantic scenes, mainly focusing on the work behind the scenes of an airport.
- Sisley will play Cheung Yeuk Ling (張若玲), an airline manager at the airport. She is Kenneth's ex-wife. It was not something very dramatic that happened that caused them to separate; it was purely something unsatisfactory in life that caused them to separate. They have feelings for one another, but it just happens that they would always encounter each other because they have to deal with different work issues. They would deal with them in a mature manner, separating personal and business matters. In the beginning, she and Kenneth are clear work partners; however, slowly, there is a turning point. She opens the door for him, and he makes friendly advances toward her, starting to make some progress. She and Joey Thye are sisters; they have a strong sisterly relationship. In the family, the younger sister is the apple of everyone's eye, adoring her and protecting her.
- Samantha will play Lui Chi San (呂芷珊), an airport passenger services manager. This character is not mean; she is very calm. She and her ex-husband, Andrew Yuen, have a three-year-old daughter. She, Kenneth, Tsui Wing, and Tony are good brothers. She also has a light romantic storyline with Tony; they already started to know each other in university, having good feelings for one another.
- Tony will play the head security officer of airport security. He takes the initiative to pursue Samantha; although he has pursued her for a long time, there should be a happy ending.
- Brian Chu will play a pilot.
- Tiffany Lau will play a flight attendant.
- Rosita will play Fong Ho Yi (方可兒), an admintrative trainee in the central control centre. She is Kenneth's subordinate. She has more of a romantic storyline with Ricco Ng; there is a bit of bickering with him.
- Tsui Wing will play an airport apron manager. He, Kenneth, Tony, and Samantha knew each other in their youth. He and Ricco have a special relationship.
- Joey Thye will play Cheung Wing (張穎), a flight attendant. She is Sisley's younger sister. She is a bit unreasonable, but she maintains her professionalism at work.
- Ricco will play Kwan Yu On (關宇安), one of the students at an aviation academy. He is an aviation industry enthusiast. He is also called 「安仔」.
- Moses Chan will guest-star as the chairman of the Airport Authority for one scene, which is being filmed at a hotel.
- Michael Wai will play Ho Tin Yau (賀天友).
- Eunice So will play a ground crew.
- Purple Ng will play a ground crew.
- Paco Ngai will play a ground crew.

ontv Clip

Rebecca Zhu will film the new series "Anti-Crime Heroes". Originally, one of the female leads of this series was Jacky Cai; however, because she has to film "Forensic Heroes VI", she is unable to take part. Thus, the series crew has adjusted the script based on Rebecca's image and characteristics, and has arranged for her and Elaine Yiu to be the female leads. It is known that Rebecca and Joel Chan have a romantic storyline in the series; the two dated when they were studying but later separated, meeting again after they grow up. Although she is playing a Madam, Rebecca's character is definitely not a tomboy; she is tough and full of femininity.

Anniversary Series Set to Feature War Among Kings and Queens! Kenneth Ma Using Public Opinion to Battle Moses Chan, Charmaine Sheh Going Against 'Double Yans'

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

ontv Clip

TVB starts airing anniversary series in October every year, and the leads take advantage of the timing to compete for awards at the subsequent awards presentation! After "From Hong Kong to Beijing" has been scheduled as an anniversary series, on.cc has received exclusive news that the remaining two anniversary series are tentatively scheduled to be "Romeo and His Butterfly Lover", starring husband-and-wife team Moses Chan and Aimee Chan, and Charmaine Sheh and Kenneth Ma's grand production, "The QUEEN of News".

All three series have a strong cast. Among them, Moses and Kenneth each have at least three series to compete for TV king. Moses has "Treasure of Destiny", "Narcotics Heroes", and "Romeo"; in "Narcotics", his dispirited look and unique voice were refreshing. However, he has been met with Kenneth's super stamina. Apart from "Speakers of Law", he also has "The Invisibles", which is the most loved by netizens and is currently TVB's highest ratings this year, and then "QUEEN". It will certainly be a tough battle.

Hopes for Jazz Lam to Win 'Supporting Actor'

Moses and Kenneth won TV king in 2007 and 2019 respectively. Kenneth said in an interview [today], "Really having a normal attitude for awards. Just like in previous years, I just want to win 'Best Series'. It is much more joyful to share the joy than enjoy it alone; it's also happier to eat a meal together. 'Speakers' and 'Invisibles' have released this year so far. 'Invisibles' has a greater chance because it is currently the highest-rated series this year and is temporarily the number one favourite among netizens in an online voting. The reaction to "QUEEN" later is still unknown, but I am very confident". He feels that he has been very lucky this year, and he has had breakthroughs in many series: "The character in 'QUEEN' is a rare sight. I am not a good person. Battling with Charmaine from the beginning to the end. Hope that the series will be well-received when it comes out so that there is a greater chance of competing for awards. Also, I really hope that 'Best Supporting Actor' will be won by Jazz Lam".

As for Moses, he also likes this year's works: "'Narcotics' received a positive response in terms of ratings and public praise. I am also looking forward to 'Romeo' getting good results. After all, Aimee has not appeared on the screen for a long time...believe that viewers are also looking forward to it. The story is also brand new, so also full of confidence!" Regarding awards, he thinks that it is too early to say: "Facing so many strong series, can only have a wait-and-see attitude. The confidence is there. Hope that the luck can continue until the end of the year!" When asked if he is confident in winning an award with his wife, he laughingly said, "Ha ha ha. If so, it would really be a big thanks!"

Aimee Chan's Comeback Has an Advantage

In terms of TV queen, Nancy Wu has been highly praised for her performances in "Mission Run" and "Narcotics". She should have a good chance of winning an award, but now she has to face Aimee, who is making a comeback after a long time, and Charmaine's returning work. In addition, Katy Kung, who often brushes past TV queen, is very refreshing in "QUEEN" and "Unchained Medley". There certainly seems to be a fierce battle!

Back then, Charmaine swept 11 awards for her role as 「釘姐」 in "Line Walker" and became the only '11 Awards TV Queen" in Hong Kong history. When she was interviewed [today], she said, "'QUEEN' is a script that I really like. Every role has a lot to execute. Of course, [I] particularly like the role of 「Man姐」. As for awards, have always left it to fate". Nancy also expressed that she has not particularly thought about awards: "Very grateful for winning twice. Whether it was 'Narcotics'' 'Cheung Lam' or 'Mission''s 'To Man', already very happy about the good reviews from viewers. Winning an award or not is secondary".

Aimee is really looking forward to the broadcast of "Romeo": "It's happy to be nominated, but I have not thought that far. Just came back out to film, hope that viewers like it most. Of course, whether Moses is nominated or winning an award, I would support him the same. I will always support him!" Katy hopes to collaborate with the leads of the anniversary series: "Have not thought too much about awards. Hope to do every role well so as to not disappoint those who have given me opportunities".

TV King Ruco Chan Wants to Compete for Supporting Actor Award

Ruco Chan, who won TVB's TV king in 2016 with the series "A Fist Within Four Walls", is leading the anniversary series "From" this year, collaborating with Jinny Ng for the first time. When interviewed, he admitted that it felt fresh. Jinny is a singer, so the audience was a bit worried about her being the female lead at first, but her acting skills were good in "The Spectator", which premiered online in Mainland, and she was also praised by Ruco for having potential, instantly getting bonus points!

Talking about this year's battle for TV king, Ruco laughingly said, "There are many scenes in terms of emotional storylines; viewers will be very immersed when watching, but I played an antagonist in 'Invisibles', and viewers also really liked it. Was really overjoyed, but don't know if [I] will be shortlisted for leading actor. In the past, very few antagonists get TV king. Would [I] get 'Supporting Actor' this year? Experience everything! (Give other supporting actors a chance!) Well, that's true. It's not really right. It would be better if more other actors participate". As for Jinny, who is competing for TV queen, called herself the 'Best Accompanying Runner' when interviewed. She said, "I have always had the attitude of being happy for others. Instead, nervous about what outfit [I] should wear that night".
