The film NOW YOU SEE ME 2 two nights ago held its Hong Kong premiere. Irene Wan Bik Ha, Kara Wai Ying Hung, Kathy Yuen (Tong Yi), Albert Yeung Sau Sing and his wife showed their support.

Tong Yi recently took two film roles and would play characters at age 18 and 35. She is 28. She thought playing her age 10 years ago would be more difficult because back then she felt like she had no idea what she was doing. In addition she has always been tough. Her boyfriend Ken Hung Cheuk Lap thought that she felt more like a brother. Thus her boyfriend often asked her to be gentler. Yet she insisted on being herself. In the new film in which she played a more mature character, she would be fortunate enough to work with a Best Actor.

Wai Ying Hung lately has been busy with several film promotions. HAPPINESS (HUNG WON SI NGOR) was even chosen as a recommended film in the U.S. She will have to fly there to promote. Siu Hung admitted that she did not expect the film would receive any international award, since it was a low budget non entertainment film. She only wanted good box office and good word of mouth. She said that the film's subject was Alzheimer's and many people after watching it shed tears.

Siu Hung said that her and the director's mother both had Alzheimer's. She also provided her mother's experience to the production. She played a Alzheimer's patient in her 60s. She could not wear make up and had to have wrinkles and white hair. Siu Hung said, "I don't mind playing ugly, I only mind that no one says I am a pretty demon woman. You should call me pretty demon woman to give me some satisfaction!"
