“Resident Evil: Afterlife” Stars Get to Work


Hard at work on their new film, Wentworth Miller, Milla Jovovich, Ali Larter and Spencer Locke prepared for a “Resident Evil: Afterlife” scene on a ship in Lake Ontario on Wednesday (November 4).
The foursome just got started on the Paul W.S. Anderson directed flick, which is the 4th installment from the franchise with a release date set for August 27, 2010.

As for the plotline, a summary tells, “In a world ravaged by a virus infection, turning its victims into the Undead, Alice continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven from the Undead leads them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city is overrun by thousands of Undead and Alice and her comrades are about to step into a deadly trap.”
Excited about the new gig, Miss Jovovich tweeted: “Wow, just finished a scene with Ali Larter and Wentworth Miller on a skiff approaching the huge ship. To say its cold is a joke. A bitter joke. Of course, Ali and I aren’t wearing much and to make matters worse Wenty is driving the boat himself and crashing it repeatedly! lol!”

Li Bing Bing on Zhou Xun comparisons: We are only being ourselves


In town to grace the official opening of Burberry in ION Orchard with Korean actor, Won Bin, Chinese actress Li Bing Bing was the focal point of attention when she made her grand entrance with a huge smile.

Dressed in a chic white cocktail dress, the gracious actress obliged and answered every single question posed by the media.

On her Best Actress nomination for The Message at the inaugural Taiwanese Golden Horse Awards, she said, "To be honest, I am really happy. This nomination is a kind of reaffirmation.

"I hope that everyone will enjoy the movie because I believe everyone knows about the historic story that is told in the movie."

Frequently compared to her compatriot and fellow co-star in movie, Zhou Xun, Li gave her two-cents worth. "For every movie, the media will often create a talking point. When two actresses are together, they will talk about disputes and disharmony. When a male and female actress is paired together, they will come up with rumours. I feel that we are only being ourselves no matter what kind of news there is."

The 33-year-old revealed that she currently has no plans to expand her career to the Hollywood market. "I feel that the current movie industry in China is really good. Local Chinese people really enjoy watching their local productions onscreen. Fate plays a part in whether or not I will further develop my career in Hollywood. If there is [fate], I'll go. If there is none, I am really comfortable remaining in China."

Displaying the amiable side of her, actress continued to gamely pose for pictures upon entering the store. Local celebrities such as Zoe Tay, Christopher Lee, Huang Shi Nan, Irene Ang, Kit Chan, and Jacelyn Tay were also present.

The Message is currently screening in all local theatres.
