‘I was so nervous before I stepped out’: Christopher Lee walks on steel beams 8 storeys above ground for new film

February 6, 2023 by www.asiaone.com Leave a Comment

Filming at high altitude gives many people jitters and Christoher Lee is no exception.

The 51-year-old reprised his role as Ah Qi in the 2021 HBO Asia drama Workers for the upcoming movie of the same name, and one scene left him and his co-star Alex Ko shaking.

The two play construction workers and the scene required them to stand on steel beams around eight storeys high to carry out welding.

“It was really so high. I was so nervous before I stepped out. The wind was so strong too!” Christopher told Taiwanese reporters .

Alex, also 51, added: “The wind up there was really strong. When I walked, I felt like I was going to be swept away, yet I had to look relaxed. Basically, it’s not easy! Workers have it tough, and we really have to be careful about safety whenever there are any scenes filmed on high altitude.”

The movie is situated 11 years before the timeline of the drama series Workers. During a large-scale public construction project, Ah Qi (Christopher) and Ah Qin (Alex) become good friends with Chang Ge (Yu An-shun) and Ah Quan (Hsueh Shih-ling).

Relying on his intuition and luck, Ah Qi hopes to get onto the variety show Whose House Does Luck Go To and realise his dream of getting rich. He ropes in his wife Mei-fung (Peggy Tseng) and son Xiao-jie to participate in the show to win the grand prize.

Christopher won the Golden Bell Awards for Best Supporting Actor in a Mini-series in 2021 for the drama series.

Christopher and Alex said in the interview that they had to go through training before the actual filming, and as practice, they walked for 20 metres on steel beams five storeys above ground.

Professionals guided them throughout the process and there was also a safety net set up below them that could withstand up to 90kg of weight. They also wore their safety helmet, safety belt and reflective vest, and were hooked to the safety rope.

However, they stood at a much higher altitude during filming, at eight storeys high.

Alex admitted: “Of course I still felt intimidated! After all, this was much higher than it was the last time. In addition, there was nothing below us, just a safety net… It’s hard for people to imagine it if they have not experienced it… I really felt my legs go weak up there!”

Filming for that scene lasted for two hours, and Christopher and Alex remained up on the steel beams the entire time, exposed to the harsh sun.

Once they returned to the ground, their faces were burning red, they were perspiring from head to toe, and even their hair was drenched in sweat.

Co-star Miao Ke-Li, 52, says: “I wanted to ask if they wore diapers. If they went up and were unable to come down (to go to the bathroom), it would be very troublesome for them!”

Another comedy entertainer featuring both of them is all set to make the audience laugh. The duo will be seen sharing screen space for the film Enkilum Chandrike. The trailer of the film was released recently and it created a huge buzz.

Jr NTR urges fans to stop asking about film updates from directors and producers

February 6, 2023 by www.news18.com Leave a Comment

Tamil Star Jr NTR is now busy with his upcoming film NTR 30. Recently, Jr NTR attended the pre-release event of actor Nandamuri Kalyan Ram’s nextfilm Amigos as the chief guest. Amigos, in which Kalyan Ram is playing a triple-role for the first time, will be released in theatres on February 10.

While addressing the audiences at the event, Jr NTR requested all his fans to stop clamouring for film updates, as it puts the filmmakers and producers under “a lot of pressure”.

At the event, when the fans started asking about the updates pertaining to Jr NTR’s next project, NTR 30, the actor said that such constant demands from fans force the directors to come up with film announcements that lack excitement.

“I am asking this as a small request. Honestly, there won’t be anything to tell while we are making a film. It’s very hard to give updates every day and every hour,” said Jr NTR.

“We understand your enthusiasm. But sometimes it puts a lot of pressure on producers and directors. They can’t reveal things for your excitement. Even if they come up with something, if you (fans) don’t like it, you end up trolling them. It’s not just me, others are also experiencing this pressure,” he added.

The 39-year-old actor further assured his admirers that whenever there’s a “solid” update regarding a film, the audience will be the first to know about it. “If there is some update, we will reveal it to you first…because you are most important to us. I am also speaking for other actors as well. We will give updates to you only if they are solid. Don’t put any pressure on producers by reading some news from somewhere. It’s my wish and a small request. Please don’t pressurise the producers for frequent updates,” urged the RRR actor.

On a concluding note, Jr NTR shared the updates on his forthcoming film, NTR 30 with the fans present at the event. He revealed, “On this occasion, I would like to tell you that NTR 30 will be launched in February and the regular shoot will commence in March. We will release the film on April 5, 2024.”

The film is helmed by Koratala Siva and other cast members of NTR 30 are yet to be announced.

Meanwhile, speaking about Kalyan Ram’s Amigos, the film has been directed by Rajendra Reddy. Touted to be an action crime thriller, the film also stars Ashika Ranganath and Nithin Prasanna in important roles.

The couple confirmed they were living together in August 2019 and bought a house together in February 2021.

She told the publication: ‘Joe is the most supportive person… I’d love to have a family one day, and I know Joe would love a family too. That would be our dream one day.’

When asked about marriage by Hello! magazine, she explained: I’m quite an unorganised person actually, Joe and I don’t really talk about that kind of thing.

‘We’re both so relaxed so we just play it by ear. We really enjoy each other’s company so much and whatever happens, happens.’

Dianne also admitted that she is really missing her family in Australia while living in the UK, deeming it the ‘toughest thing’ she has to deal with on a daily basis.

She previously dated Emmerdale actor Anthony Quinlan, 34, until the pair parted ways in October 2018, after ten months of romance.
