香港女演员李若彤近期携新电影《蝴蝶公墓》回归大屏幕。
 

 

Carman Lee is best known for her role as Xiao Longnv in the martial² arts drama "The Return of the Condor³ Heroes." Xiao Longnv, a young girl who spent her childhood and youth growing up in an ancient graveyard⁴, is a master of martial arts despite her tender age.

 

During an exclusive interview with Carman Lee, the actress revealed that her role in "Butterfly Cemetery" is surprisingly similar to the role she portrayed⁵ in the television drama "The Return of the Condor Heroes."

 

"I portray⁶ an owner of a cemetery, who never ages and cannot die. Amongst her tribe, the males are destined⁷ to die when they reach a certain age."

 

The movie "Butterfly Cemetery" is an adaptation of Cai Jun's novel, based on a legend that every city is home to a mysterious cemetery that everyone is eager to find because it enables a person to realize his or her wishes.

 

But the story's mystery lies in the fact that all those who managed to locate this magical cemetery died as a result.

 

Directed by Joe Ma, "Butterfly Cemetery" also stars New Zealand model and actor Vivian Dawson, mainland actress Zhang Li and actor Li Zifeng

 

"Butterfly Cemetery" is set for release on August 28 of this year, Chinese Valentine's day.
