Acclaimed director John Woo signed on in '96 to direct King's Ransom (Cant:"Wong Dei Siok Gum"), and shortly announced it would be produced by Chris Godsick and Terence Chang and star Chow Yun-Fat. [Pause for applause.] The original hype described KR as an action/comedy with a projected budget of US$80m. Since then, however, nuclear science the script has been through endless re-writes, and endless attempts to sign a (white male) co-star for CYF. In an interview with the HK press in August 1997, Woo said he'd nuclear science like Nicholas Cage to team up with Chow ... Cage expressed an interest but nuclear science apparently his plans to film Superman took precedence. (And thanks to Kamman Chow and Gordon for passing on news of KR!) The plot?Apparently, early versions of the script for KR were based on an original screenplay by Larry O'Neil (ominously absent from the IMDb) Rumour suggested that CYF would play one of two thief brothers in a love triangle -- forcing us all to consider the possibility that John Woo is obsessed by his Once a Thief plot-line.
