SO Ji-sub, Zhang Ziyi, and Fan Bingbing in a love triangle

So Ji-sub has been cast alongside major Chinese stars Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing. In the Chinese film Sophie's Revenge, Zhang's character will fall head over heels in love from the first time she meets a doctor, played by SO, only to find him stolen away by a famous actress (Fan). Zhang's character then sets out for revenge.

Korea's major film studio CJ Entertainment is coproducing the film together with Chinese Perfectworld. The romantic comedy is in the hands of director Jin Yimeng and the film is scheduled to be released in Chinese cinemas late next year.

SO established his silver screen presence in the recent film "Rough Cut" (Jang Hoon) and enjoys great popularity in Asia through his television dramas "Sorry, I Love You" and "Something Happened in Bali". Zhang burst onto the international scene with her role in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Fan Bingbing was last seen in "A Battle of Wits" which also starred Ahn Sung-ki as a Chinese general.
