Chow is known for having strict demands of the actors and actresses who star in his films, but the cast, especially his leading stars Show Luo and Kris Wu, said they still enjoyed filming the science fiction comedy.
"I have to repeat my performance several times to meet the director's demands. It's toilsome but fun too."
"Every detail of the film is the best it can be because it's carefully selected by Grandmaster Sing."
The theme song of the movie, which was recently released, is a classic called "You Are Still the Best in the World."
Originally from the 1983 hit drama "Legend of the Condor Heroes," the song was re-recorded by Karen Mok and Adam Cheng.
It marks the first cooperation between Chow and Mok in 15 years.
The film is scheduled to be released on Feb. 8, the first day of the Chinese New Year, the Year of the Monkey.
