"Brigitte Lin has reportedly decided her return will be with Wong Kar Wai in an adaption of 'The Eternal Yin Hsueh-yen' (aka The Eternal Snow Beauty). Filming won't begin until 2010 after Grand Master Yip Man is completed, Tony Leung wishes to participate.

Taiwanese writer Pai Hsien-yung previously said: "Brigitte Lin is my old friend. She has always wanted to act in movies or dramas adapted from my stories such as 'The Eternal Yin Hsueh-yen', 'A Touch of Green' and etc. I've extended my invitations in the past, but she was unable to take up the offer and it was much regretted."

The Eternal Snow Beauty (永遠的尹雪豔)
The aging "Snow Beauty" (Yin Hsueh-yen) looks back on her days as the belle of Shanghai's Paramount ballroom; she is still the center of attention at upscale mahjong soirees she arranges at her Taipei home."

Knowing WKW, I bet it won’t be an adaptation at all. Oh well.

Hmm. I was kind of hoping she'd make her return in The Grandmaster as that one article suggested. Just the same, this is fantastic news. I cant' wait to see her on the big screen.

any news concerning this project? I know that you mustn't hurry with Wong, but it should be great that after THE GRANDMASTERS he'd decide to dedicate himself to this vehicle for Lin, who deserves a comeback!
