Funnyman Chow ("Kung Fu Hustle") stars in the pic, as well as produces and directs, with a bevy of new, young talent, said Alice Chow, production coordinator at Chow's Star Overseas. One of the new faces will be leading actress Kitty Zhang Yuqi from China.
Pic is a Hong Kong-China co-production with China Film Group.
The budget and story line haven't been officially released, but it's widely expected to be a sci-fi pic inspired by China's Shenzhou manned space program.
Stephen Chow also is looking to make a dance-themed pic for teenagers, says Alice Chow, but it's early days. There isn't a production sked, cast isn't confirmed and the script is still being worked on, but the film will be made this year, she added.
