According to an article posted by the Oriental Morning Post (which I translated using Google Translator), Wentworth Miller will be heading over to China again. In March, he's supposed to film a movie that is set to take place in Pearl Harbor before the Shanghai breakout. What will be Miller's role? Well, we're not sure yet. This piece of info has not been confirmed yet. Since the article is more confusing than not, we decided not to keep it posted.
Fallinblue, from Tieba Baidu, has posted some information as well (which I believe she saw on tv in china). We have kept her info in tact, which is below. It sounds like initially, Wentworth, among others, was being considered for this film. The latter part of her post mentions an article dated Jan. 15 (which would have been yesterday in China) that says he will be appearing in the movie "East Wind Rain". Thanx Fallinblue!

Regarding to the movie East Wind, Rain, the earliest date that I heard of the news was Jan. 12 from Tieba baidu. One of our members posted a link from sina.com. Here it is: http://ent.sina.com.cn/m/c/2009-01-12/14492339411.shtml. It reported that the movie is in the process of selecting cast. It is considering Went and Jean Reno, one of them as an American agent. There was also a Japanese actor. Sorry I don't know how to spell his name in English. If you go to the website, you can see their pics.
There was a news clip on v.sohu.com/20090113/n261732157.shtml. The clip is a recording from an entertainment news on CCTV Channel 6. It reported on Jan. 13. At the very end of these news, from 1:23, Liu Yunlong mentioned his new project. Here is my translation of what he said: "right now, we are still discussing, negotiating, with both domestic and international actors including actors from the US. We are getting touching with them, but it hasn't finally settled down yet", from 1:40, he said: "we have some directions, for example, like Miller in Prison Break".
Then there was another new coming after this one. This one is niepb mentioned. link: http://www.news365.com.cn/xwzx/whyyyl/200901/t20090115_2166162.htm. it was posted on Jan. 15. It said that Went will come to China again on this March for Liu Yunlong's movie East Wind, Rain. He will play the role of American agent. Jean Reno will not. It also mentioned that on Jan. 14, Me&City had their 09 spring and summer press. Because of PB's shooting, Went couldn't be there, but he had recorded a VCR to say that he will see his Chinese fans very soon again.
My two cents on the one: The first response I had when I first read news was it was a fake news again. They just wanna use Went's name to promote their new movie because Went is really really popular in China, especially after his visit. I had the same response as the one when I heard he was going to be a spokesperson for a Chinese brand. But right now, I am not so sure. I guess we have to wait and see. anyway, I have a very complicated feeling about this, which I am not quite sure I can explain it well in English. So I'm gonna just drop it here. Since PB is going to come to the end, we are all looking forward to his next move. All I am hoping is his next one is worthy and good no matter it is a Chinese movie, or an American movie/tv, or other foreign projects.
