Zhou Xun has now begun filming her new movie, “Tomorrow Will Be Better” (translated title) with director Peter Chan.
The movie boasts a strong lineup of acting talents, with Zhou Xun and Wen Qi playing mother and daughter for the first time.
“Tomorrow Will Be Better” focuses on the plight of contemporary middle-aged women, and tells the story of Shen Jia (Zhou Xun), a top TV host who appears glamorous to outsiders, but whose life is on the verge of collapse behind the spotlight.
She not only faces a marriage in name only to a long-absent husband (Wang Xiao), and a daughter (Wen Qi) who has become mute under immense pressure, but also struggles with her father (Tian Zhuangzhuang) who suffers from a hereditary disease. The story revolves around how she rebuilds her self-worth and repairs her family relationships in the face of this complete collapse.
Zhou Xun highly praised Wen Qi’s acting skills, exclaiming that co-starring with Wen Qi made her feel “amazed,” and that she hadn’t been so impressed by the performances of young actors in a long time.
The film is currently shooting in Chengdu.
