On May 6, according to foreign media reports, Ma Boqian will play the male lead in a Hollywood movie. The film is adapted from the well-known domestic anime "Corpse Brother / My Name is Bai Xiaofei", and the title of the film is tentatively set as "New York Will Devour You".
Ma Boqian is a Chinese-American male star who gained attention for his participation in "Children of Tomorrow" and achieved a good second place. He has starred in the web drama of "Detective Chinatown" and also participated in the recording of "Rap New Generation", and has been loved by many audiences with his handsome appearance and super high literary and artistic talent.
"Corpse Brother" is a zombie-themed anime about a biotechnology engineer named Bai Xiaofei, who uses his expertise to lead a team of foreign brothers to survive in New York at a time when the world has changed dramatically. This anime is very famous in the national comic industry, and has also been adapted into a web series before, with many loyal fans.
The Hollywood live-action version of the film will be based on the original book, creating the tone of "Dragon Tiger Team" and "Deadpool", mixing elements such as science fiction, comedy, and action, bringing audiences a different viewing experience and feeling new York during the period of world destruction.
This "New York Will Devour You" will be directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson, in addition to the official announcement that Ma Boqian will play the male protagonist Bai Xiaofei, "Ace Agent" Colin Feith will also join it. However, the specific role has not yet been revealed, and the network exposure is a happy character who can show humor.
Ma Boqian's strength is extraordinary, his appearance and temperament are also very youthful, and his English ability is very good, which shows that he is very suitable for this anime role. I wish the filming smoothly, look forward to seeing Ma Boqian's wonderful performance in the film, and hope that he can let more people see the style of Chinese teenagers.
