Jay Chou's dream of writing a song for Jet Li comes true, accepting theme song for "Fearless"
by kelvin@multistars - 4th December 2005
Jay finally gets his wish to work with his idol Jet Li. According to reports, recently Director Chou has been producing the theme song for Jet Li's last action movie "Fearless" which Jet Li is directing and acting in. Director Chou once met Jet Li, but he was so nervous he didn't know what to say to Jet Li, this time's meeting has given a chance for the two to work together.
Director Chou, who just won the "Best Newcomer Actor" in the Golden Horse Awards, has been working diligently on the big screen, firstly it was rumoured that there was a possibility that he was going to work with Stephen Fung, and he would be playing the role Ti Lung played in the remake he is planning of "A Better Tomorrow", but in reality, he has already accepted a new piece of work for movies one step earlier, this piece of work has fulfilled his childhood dream, to work with his super idol Jet Li, to write the theme song for his self-produced "Fearless" movie.
Beforehand Director Chou once again mentioned that he loved to watch Jet Li fight, even to the point that he would not miss a single movie if it had Jet Li in it. The deep love between Jet Li and his wife Nina Li made Director Chou want to film a movie about his idol's love story, when Jet Li heard about this he smiled saying: "Really? Then as long as my wife nods then it is good to go!"
Not long ago, Director Chou secretly met with Jet Li in Mainland China, he also gave him a copy of "Initial D" DVD, thinking back to his frame of mind when he faced his idol, he, who likes to stay cool, said: "He's too great, I was so excited I forgot what I was going to ask him, instead he said to me, when anyone is born it is unfair, it's about whether you have the courage to finish walking this path, it's very meaningful."
