Filming for the new Shaw Brothers series "Behind the Queens" is currently in full swing. The other day, Bosco [Wong], Ada [Choi], Yumiko Cheng, Ashley Lin, and Patrick Tam were working in a presidential suite at a hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. Ada, who is filming a Hong Kong series after eight years, is in opposition with Yumiko in the series. That day, the scene that the two filmed was a heartfelt confession, crying and pouring out their hearts. In the end, they both cried real tears, having an acting battle. The tears even continued to flow after the cut, and Ada kept wiping away her tears. When interviewed, she laughingly said that she is an acting heavyweight; crying scenes are not difficult. Yumiko expressed that she was already very moved when she was looking at Ada during rehearsals.
Yumiko Cheung Revealed to Have Intense Scenes
Although crying scenes are an easy job, Ada frankly said that there is a lot of pressure filming the series this time, especially since she had only received two pages of the script the night before this scene, and was so worried that she cried out, "I kept trying to memorize it. Can't remember it...can't remember it...!" Yumiko teased her, saying, "Ada says a lot of lines, but it's very fluent, which proves that she is very suitable for long dialogue. Write more for her". Ada retorted, "Your mouth is very spiteful. Not right with me, just as expected!" Ada revealed that Yumiko has many sexy intense scenes in the series. Although Yumiko said that she does not know yet, Ada jokingly continued, "I have long lines, while you are a sexy bombshell, each having our own roles!"
Bosco has a lawyer ex-wife in the series. The series crew had always kept the casting a secret, and had not publicized who would be playing the role. On the day of the set visit, Bosco finally revealed it. It turns out that it will be played by Louise Wong, who usually shoots movies. Since entering the industry, Louise has only made a guest appearance in the series "Left on Read" and [shot] the mini-series "Coolie"; thus, her appearance in "Behind" is a pleasant surprise! Bosco laughingly said that he suggested Louise, mainly being drawn to her stage presence. He laughingly said, "This character cannot be too frail. Would not work if [she] walks out not being tall enough. Would have a big problem [if] looking for [Kandy] Wong". He even highly praised Louise for not only having a cinematic feel but also an excellent memory, revealing that the dialogue had to be changed at the last minute when filming a courtroom scene the other day, and Louise was able to immediately memorize it and shoot it without any NGs, which was extremely impressive!
Bosco is partnering Ada in "Behind", whereas he bickered and had an acting battle with Charmaine Sheh in the currently airing anniversary series "The QUEEN of News 2", even receiving much praise from viewers for his portrayal of a villain. Asked if he wanted to charge toward TV king with "QUEEN", he expressed, "Indifferent toward awards. Okay as long as viewers watch happily". He would always bring his own soup to share with the cast and crew whenever he is working, also handing out soup on the day of filming, and even preparing a special soup thermos for Ada...seriously attentive. Ada also expressed being greatly moved, praising [him] for being very thoughtful, and joked that, although filming series is laborious, [her] skin is still pretty thanks to Bosco! Mentioning that she and Bosco grew up together in the series, with a relationship like that of 'brothers', Ada laughingly said that, originally, there were ambiguous scenes in the script, but they all got removed by her. The two even agreed that males and females can have a pure friendship. Bosco said, "I also have many relationships with friends of the opposite sex that are like that of brothers. Jacky Cai is also one of them. Males and females do not necessarily only have love".
Ashley Lin Has a One-Sided Love for Bosco Wong, Gets Back Feeling as a Young Girl
Artiste Ashley has a one-sided love for Bosco in "Behind", saying that she projected her own feeling as a young girl having a one-sided love for a guy into the series. Talking about what unforgetting things there were when filming the series this time, she laughingly said, "The happiest thing about filming the series this time is playing mother and daughter with Athena Chu because, when I was younger, I really liked watching Stephen Chow's movies. At that time, thought that Athena was very pretty...is a goddess in my heart".
As for Patrick, who has not filmed Hong Kong series in a long time, he pointed out that, in the short span of a year, he took on two series, "Themis" and "Behind". In "Behind", he plays Ada's ex-husband. The two have not worked together for many years; this time felt like a reunion. However, he laughingly said that he often gets bullied by her in the series, but he is very clingly toward Ada. He said that the biggest reason for taking on the series is being able to 'fulfill a dream': "My identity is a 'movie king'...have never done it before! Treat it as satisfying the experience of the identity of a movie king...immediately accepted it!"
