Fortune Cookie

Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey is the biggest Hollywood star ever to appear in a Chinese film production.

Spacey has signed on to take a leading role in the black comedy Inseparable as a mysterious American expat who befriends a troubled young Chinese man says Variety.

The film will be shot in Mandarin and English. Daniel Wu will play the lead, with Beibi Gong as his wife, an investigative reporter. Dayyan Eng, a Beijing-based US national who shot the Chinese cult hit Du zi deng dai--Waiting Alone, penned this new script and calls action.

The Chinese film industry and Hollywood have co-financed movies starring the likes of Ed Norton, Willem Dafoe and Donald Sutherland, but this marks the first occasion where a wholly locally financed production has lured someone of Spacey's stature.
