Andy Lau and Asian-American actress Maggie Q (Mission: Impossible III) will star in Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon, a big-budget historical action film being put together as a pan-Asian co-production, reports Variety.
Lau, who is honored this week as Asian Filmmaker of the Year, and Q, currently filming Live Free or Die Hard opposite Bruce Willis in Canada, will present "Kingdoms" to media in Pusan Sunday.
Daniel Lee (Dragon Squad, One Armed Swordsman) will direct with Sammo Hung ("Martial Law") on board as action choreographer.
With a budget approaching $25 million, the film is set up by Hong Kong's Visualizer Film and Korea's Taewon Entertainment and will shoot in China from March 2007.
The project is based on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" a vast 600-year-old novel by Luo Guangzhong that ranks as one of China's four most important pieces of literature, and also provided source material for John Woo's upcoming Battle of Red Cliff.
The movie is expected to use 40,000 extras, twice that of "The Lord of the Rings."

Thesp helps Jackman, McGregor plant Seed pic

Maggie Q will join Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor in the cast of "The Tourist," a sexual thriller being produced by Jackman's Seed Prods. and Cheyenne Enterprises.
Pic will lens in Gotham in coming weeks and Q (real name Quigley) will slot in her supporting role before she starts work on 20th Century Fox's "Live Free or Die Hard," which begins shooting in L.A. in November.
Q, who broke out in "Mission: Impossible 3," recently completed crime comedy "Balls of Fury" for Intrepid Pictures, Rogue Pictures and Spyglass Entertainment.
"Tourist," helmed by Marcel Langenegger, is about an accountant (McGregor) introduced to a mysterious sex club by his lawyer friend (Jackman). He soon becomes the prime suspect in a woman's disappearance. Other cast includes Robert "Toshi" Kar Yun Chan and Michelle Williams.
Q is in Pusan for the launch of "Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon," a pan-Asian co-production set in Han-dynasty China. Role, her first in a distant period pic, requires Q to learn historical Chinese language, equestrian skills and to play the pipa, an ancient musical instrument.
"I'm difficult to categorize ethnically and personality wise," Q said. "And just because I'm working in Hollywood these days doesn't mean that I've turned my back on Asia. I will go anywhere in the world where there is good material."
