Highly regarded Gong, who starred in the acclaimed 'Raise the Red Lantern' directed by leading Chinese director Zhang Yimou, was the latest to be cast for the film, the newspaper said.

Hong Kong star, 2004 Cannes Best Actress winner Maggie Cheung, had originally been tipped for one of the lead roles.
