"Seven Saints" is and Andy Lau's heart buried for many years, has been thinking about a game of oriental mythology heroes chess, this movie is only a beginning of the series, but due to funds and other comprehensive factors, for a long time can not start as scheduled.
The story tells the story of Qitian Great Saint Sun Wukong and several other righteous brothers, the seven saints in addition to Qitian Great Saint Sun Wukong, the other six are the Pingtian Great Sacred Bull Demon King, the Great Sacred Jiao Demon King of the Covering Sea, the Great Sacred Lion Camel King of Moving Mountains, the Ventilation Great Saint Macaque King, the Exorcism Great Saint Yu Marmoset King, and the Mixed Heaven Great Saint JinPeng. According to the information of the previous press conference, the cast only announced that the old drama bone Li Chengru played the Bull Demon King, and among the role arrangements that appeared this time, there was another Great Sage covering the sea - "Jiao Devil King", and it would be played by Shi Xiaolong!
Shi Xiaolong has learned martial arts since he was a child, and since the Jiao Devil King is called "the Great Sage of covering the sea", it must be related to the sea and the Dragon Palace, and Huang Minghao, who plays Nezha, will have a lot of intersection, all of them are young generation actors, and the performance can be expected!

Although the movie is named Seven Saints, if it is based on "Journey to the West", in addition to the Qitian Great Saint Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King, the other five saints basically show their faces, and there is no extra drama. If the Seven Saints are the protagonists, it is likely that the other Five Saints will be important characters in the main story.
Now that Shi Xiaolong has joined in playing the Jiao Demon King, ren Xianqi should also be another "saint". Andy Lau and Ren Xianqi have a good relationship, in March, Ren Xianqi went to Hong Kong to shoot a drama, Andy Lau did not forget to send desserts, Ren Xianqi is even more open to show. Perhaps although the progress of "Seven Saints" is slow, Andy Lau, the "Great Sage", has never stopped, and has been gathering the remaining Seven Saints Brothers!
As for the "White Lady" Zhao Yazhi, with her fame and current makeup skills, it is no problem to play one of the Seven Saints, but many netizens said that from the perspective of Zhao Yazhi's stage performance in recent years, it seems that it has never been able to get rid of the immortality of the "White Lady", so if you play a role in "Seven Saints", it is probably the most suitable for Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Andy Lau is indeed a good example of love and dedication, although he is the king of heaven, known as a model worker, but after all, he is over sixty years old, he is still full of energy, he will not stop at all, and the recent work arrangement is quite compact: "Crisis Route" is being filmed, and "The Wandering Earth 2" will be released in 2023...
But even so, the movie "Seven Saints" still seems reluctant to put down. If only from a commercial point of view, the lineup and special effects of "Seven Saints" will inevitably be not low, and the box office of the movie with the theme of Journey to the West is difficult to guarantee, which is also an important reason for the hesitation of the investment producer.
In the same genre, the animation "The Demon King of the Next World" only grossed 100 million, while the six-year-old child, Ma Dehua's "Dare to Ask where the way is" has been promoted for many years, and there is no way to officially launch. "Seven Saints" claims to have an initial investment of 400 million, and may also increase costs due to special effects and other factors, which means that the film will need more than one billion box office to return the cost, for investors, it is indeed necessary to take great risks, which has caused the project to be stranded several times.
But as one celebrity put it: Dreams still have to be had, what if they come true? Andy Lau himself wants to act, and some audiences want to watch, "Seven Saints" is worth looking forward to!
